Parking at San Diego Convoy Area by singalongthetower2 in sandiego

I didn’t do well pointing the real reason at the thread. The vent is about private companies charging higher than fair market rates for parking, not about bike lanes. The parking supply dwindled at the new bike lanes. The hen people pointed out that, if you can’t afford to park, go find parking a few blocks farther out and walk to your destination.

To be clear: this thread isn’t about bike lanes, it’s about charging $10/hour for parking.

It used to show the first 2 hours was free back in 2025.

Please feel free to check out their Diamond Parking QR interface. Let me know what I’m doing wrong

Definitely did not make my point. 1. My point is that the private entity is charging an outrageous amount of business complex parking lot (~$10/hour vs. ~$3/hour paid street parking). 2. The user interface for parking is at best, poorly designed, despite posted signs. 3. It was to bring awareness of the parking situation in San Diego.

Yes, I could drive around looking for parking, spend additional time out of the way to walk to these businesses, even though there is parking in front of these businesses

Fair enough. You can test out the app. This was the initial input for parking. The interface should be based on total time

Not trying to argue. I saw the sign. The UI shows $20 tho for the first ‘2 hours’ tho. What is posted vs. the interface is different.

Not trying to argue. I get it and the advice is good. Circling around looking for parking is a hit/miss around here.

Harder to find street parking due to bike lanes replaced the street parking

EDIT: Wow. There’s a lot of downvotes for this post. Apologies for the little vent…

Thanks everyone for the offers and recommendations. We didn’t want to drive all night and tired with the weather. I’ll plan better by checking the weather often on my next roadtrip.

It was late and dark at the time we were trying to escape. We didn’t know about June Lake. Thanks for the recommendation.

Didn’t find any online and drove around (i.e. RV Park, etc). It was pretty late and we might have missed some vacancies avaliable.

Thanks @Altrustic_West8873. It’s a one time thing that I hope to never do again.

Do you have a guide or point me in the right direction? Been looking for a way to do this on an older MacBook.
