Parking Charge Adjustments Took Effect from 1 January 2026 

Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council had passed a resolution to increase parking charges at its Budget Meeting on 25 November 2025. The revised charges came into effect from 1 January 2026 and apply to both on-street parking and Council-operated car parks. 

The adjustments, which represent an average increase of 20% Countywide but with rates in the Dún Laoghaire Harbour area remaining as they are, are necessary to meet rising operational costs and to ensure continued funding for essential services such as road maintenance, public lighting, and traffic improvements.
