LASPA to commence enforcement against operators yet to pay parking levies 

The Lagos State Parking Authority, LASPA, has issued a final call to defaulting parking operators in the state.

The agency in a statement by  Dunkwu Divine, Head, Public Affairs of LASPA on Thursday, February 12, 2026, urged operators to pay up the 2025 parking levies warning that enforcement would soon commence.

The statement added that the General Manager, LASPA, Mrs. Adebisi Adelabu, gave the warning during an interaction with the press on the activities of the Parking Authority.

She noted that Demand Notices were issued for y’2025 to all parking operators registered with LASPA earlier in the year, with payment expected within seven days of receipt of the notice.

She, however, observed that some organisations are yet to comply.

Adelabu, emphasised that the parking levy is not a discretionary but a legal requirement enshrined in the Lagos State Transport Sector Reform Law (LSTSRL 2018), adding that all defaulters of the year 2025 parking levies will be penalised.

She further noted that the funds generated from the parking levies are critical to ensuring a sustainable parking management, maintaining structured parking systems, and improving urban mobility across the state.

“Demand Notices were dispatched to all relevant corporate bodies well in advance. The expectation is clear; payment must be made within seven days of receiving the notice.

“Regrettably, some organisations are yet to remit their 2025 parking fees despite this ample notification. We must emphasise that this window for compliance is now closing”, Adelabu stated.

She warned that LASPA would soon commence state-wide monitoring and enforcement exercises on the year 2025 parking levies, noting that organisations operating parking facilities within their premises or utilizing building setbacks for parking without valid payment receipts will also be classified as defaulters and sanctioned accordingly.
