The Aurora City Council has voted to increase parking prices at the city’s two Metra stations for the first time in 10 years.

Prices are set to go up from $2 per day or $42 for a monthly pass to $3 per day or $60 for a monthly pass starting in the new year. City officials have said the change will bring the prices in line with other parking along the BNSF-Metra rail line, in particular matching the daily rates of Naperville’s parking lots at Metra stations.

Both Naperville and Aurora have parking lots at the BNSF-Metra line station on Route 59, which borders the two cities. Aurora also has parking lots at the BNSF-Metra line station at the Aurora Transportation Center on North Broadway near the city’s downtown.
