      Parking - Weekdays, from 8AM-5PM, meter parking is enforced. The typical cost is 15 minutes for 25¢. Parking garages are typically the same rate, $3 for up to 2 hours and then escalating beyond that. Many of the garages are run by the Harrisburg Parking Authority [http://www.harrisburgparking.org/]. Park for $5 from 5PM-5AM at River St, Walnut St and Chestnut St garages.

      Driving- Generally, roads are congested, especially on the Capital Beltway, during rush hour. The amount of time it would take to cover certain sections on the beltway (especially on I-83 between the York Split and I-81), can easily be tripled, or more. The freeways are far below capacity as they were built in the 1950s. However, a recent road construction project on the York Split (the PA 581/I-83 Jct.) just started and there are studies being done to widen very congested, narrow sections such as I-83. Keep in mind that the congestion peaks are between 6 and 9 AM and 3 and 6 PM on weekdays. Outside of those times, you should be able to get by with minimal (if any) delays.
