Origin
Summary
Residents on Conway Avenue have contacted my office regarding issues with on-street permit parking regulations. Currently, the existing switchover parking days significantly reduce street parking availability and have created confusion for residents and visitors. I have also heard that the posted parking signage does not match the signage in other sections of the street, resulting in further confusion and inconsistencies in enforcement. Transportation Services staff conducted a site visit and identified several issues with the posted signage.
In response to these issues, my office conducted a neighbourhood survey to request feedback on potential parking amendments. This survey confirmed strong support for removing switchover days and maintaining parking on the north side of Conway Avenue, where there are significantly more on-street parking spaces. These changes will standardize the parking regulations and increase parking availability for residents and visitors.
