agree  Sarah Downing: This is OK for both American and British English - we don't use "lot" at all in British English, although I guess it would be understood

agree  Ian M-H (X): this is fine, especially if there's also something about "free parking". otherwise consider "meter parking" or "pay-and-display parking", if the context allows you to tell which system they use
