Commuter Passport Parking Mobile App

The City of Joliet has partnered with Total Parking Solutions and Passport Parking to launch the Passport Parking mobile app. This app offers commuters a more convenient way to pay for their parking via smartphone or tablet. Users should note that this app is only available for use in the following select downtown City of Joliet commuter parking lots on Eastern Ave, New Street, Washington Street, and York Street at this time.

The app is free to download for iPhone or Android users, or users can manage their parking online at www.Ppprk.com. After making a payment, users can monitor their parking time remaining in the app and even extend their session remotely if needed.

Passport signage in the parking lots will display each lot’s zone number and provide instructions for downloading and using the app. The user is responsible for entering their designated parking stall number and zone number, (York Street – Zone 950, New Street – Zone 951, Washington Street – Zone 952 & Eastern Avenue – Zone 952). These lots will also continue to offer the cash, coin and credit card options for payment at the pay stations for $1.50 per day, or drivers can use the Passport app as a voluntary option of convenience at a cost $2 per day.

If you have any questions or problems, please call the Parking Superintendent at (815) 724-4200.
