Here is information on how Bridgeport residents
can obtain a park permits and non-residents can
obtain day passes for Seaside Park, Beardsley
Park and St. Mary's-By-The-Sea.
Unfortunately the City does not publicize this
information At all, not even on their lame
official city web site. However, I have obtained
this information from the City Park Department.
Considering that our poor city could use all the
income it can get, you would think they would
get the word out on this.
You can purchase a car sticker permit to park in
Bridgeport parks at four different locations:
City Hall, Lyons Terrace, Room 223, Mon-Fri., 9
am-5pm
Bridgeport Park Office, 7 Trumbull Rd, Trumbull,
near intersection of
Rt. 25 & Rt. 8, Mon.-Fri. 9 am-5 pm.
Lupe's Drug Store, 3129 Main St. Mon-Fri 9
am-8 pm, Sat 9 am-3 pm
Park checkpoint booths, when open
You need to bring your car registration for a
seasonal window sticker which is valid from Jan
2 - Dec. 31, but is only really needed Memorial
Day to Labor Day.
All parking lots are available to any season or
day pass holder regardless of residency. All
cabanas, concessions and showers are open to all
park users regardless of residency. Do not park
