Key rule: In Shrewsbury, a year-round overnight parking ban bars leaving a vehicle on any street for more than one hour starting at 1 a.m., and anyone with an emergency must call the Police Department before leaving a car on the street.
In Shrewsbury, the Town enforces a year-round overnight parking ban on public streets beginning at 1 a.m.; a driver with an emergency must call the Police Department beforehand, and again each night the car stays on the street. Vehicles in posted service zones are limited to 30 minutes unless actively loading or unloading, and placing an obstruction on a sidewalk or street requires a permit from the Select Board or road commissioners. When a storm is expected, cars should come off the roadside shoulders, and vehicles that interfere with snow removal are fined and towed.
