(Franklin County, MA) Ahead of the coming snowstorm, several towns have issued parking bans including Greenfield, Northfield, and Bernardston. In Greenfield, a snow emergency has been declared and a parking ban is in effect. Parking is prohibited on both sides of the street from Saturday, January 6th at 10 p.m. to Monday, January 8th at 6 a.m., which does not include on-street metered parking in downtown during business hours. No overnight parking is allowed in city lots except in designated areas of the Downtown Economy Lot on Chapman and Davis Streets. The first three floors of the Olive Street Garage will be available for free overnight parking.

In Bernardston, no on-street parking is allowed during storms. And in Northfield, no parking is allowed on road ways and vehicles must be parking far enough from the road as to not impede snow plows.
