The addition of 10,077 metered parking options boosts mobility, convenience and affordability for Evo Members beyond the hundreds of reserved parking spaces already available to them across the Lower Mainland. Members can choose to end their trip by parking at an Evo-reserved parking spot or at an open metered space at no extra charge to them.

"We're passionate about making Evo's car share experience the very best it can be," says Tai Silvey, VP of Evo Car Share. "Our Members always appreciate access to free, convenient parking options. As a locally-owned car share service, we worked closely with the City of Vancouver to make this happen."

Evo, created by BCAA, has a fleet of over 1,500 hybrid vehicles all equipped with bike/ski racks in several Lower Mainland communities including Vancouver, North Vancouver, Burnaby and New Westminster. Currently, the free metered parking pilot for Evo cars is only available in the City of Vancouver and does not including parking at meters with "no stopping" rules.
