Parking impacts

19 May 2021

Our Parking Management Strategy aims to support a balanced transportation network. To build bike lanes or multi-use paths, sometimes we have to reallocate public street space that has historically been used for private vehicle parking.

To accommodate the Abbott Street Active Transportation Corridor extension and maintain two-way vehicle traffic flow, on-street parking in some areas will be changed or converted to walking and bicycling space.

A parking study has assessed parking demand in this area and informed the project design. We anticipate that parking demand can generally be met on the east side of Abbott Street and nearby cross streets.
