WCBC News has received the following update from the Canal Place Preservation and Development Authority.

"Effective October 14, 2015 the Canal Place Visitor Parking Gates will be, once again, operational. The gates will operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The cost will be $1 per hour at a maximum of $20 per day.  The gates will not accept cash, only Visa and Mastercard. The first half hour will be free parking for those that need to use the Visitor Center or do a quick drop off or pick up from the offices within the Western Maryland Railway Station.  All permit parking areas will be monitored and strictly enforced. Those violating the parking notices will be first warned and then towed at the vehicle owner’s expense."
