The City of Idaho Springs has partnered with Park Idaho Springs to provide a more efficient system to make parking easier, more readily available and faster than before. Residents and employees will continue to receive free parking via their registered license plate. Visitors will park, then pay via our solar-powered, (paperless) payment kiosks or on the Park Idaho Springs Mobile App on their smartphone.
