The cost of parking a car in Dublin is set to more than double in some parts of the city next week.
The different colour coded zone around the city have also been expanded.
Dublin City Council approved the move to increase the cost of on street parking in the city last February, and it's the first time there's been a price hike since 2008.
From Monday July 15th, anyone who parks in the yellow zone will have to pay €3.20 an hour - up from €2.90.
Those parking in the red zone will see an increase of 30 cent to €2.70 per hour up from €2.40, while in the suburban green zone areas, drivers who were paying a €1.60 hourly rate are facing a 56% price hike up to €2.70.
The only concession will be for those with accessing the Parking Tag app- they'll get a 10% discount in yellow and red zones.
Patient support groups have raised issue with the move, saying the new extended yellow zone will now take in the streets around the Mater where patients and visitors regularly park.
