Car-sharers can rejoice as Burnaby city council unanimously approved new rules allowing car-sharing companies like Evo and Modo to park throughout the city.Car-sharing allows people to rent a vehicle for short periods of time and is part of a growing trend in sustainable transportation, according to a staff report.
Amy Choh, the city’s transportation director, said the next steps are to prepare agreements with Evo and Modo to allow them to operate in Burnaby. The cars can also park on streets next to residential and commercial premises between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. for more than three hours. BCA Coun.
