Baltimore Offers Parking Discounts for Hybrids

The program is offered to hybrids with monthly parking contracts. It would save a person about $55 per month. Only 17 hybrids are known to have monthly contracts, so the program would barely affect overall parking revenue (over $18 million per year).

However, the number of registered hybrids in Baltimore has increased 80% in the last year to over 1500 vehicles.

Kudos to Baltimore for recognizing the importance of fuel efficiency and for promoting it in a simple yet effective way.
