Residents on a street in the community of North Haven are raising concerns about “no stopping” signs that were recently placed near a crosswalk.
In all that time he said he hadn't seen a single incident in the crosswalk adjacent to his property, so he was surprised last year when he got a letter from the city saying there were safety concerns about the crossing.
“It’s not no parking. It's no stopping, so it makes it worse,” said Jeff Stone, Little’s neighbour. “You can't even theoretically stop there for a second. I guess you can't even stop to drop off your groceries. I guess the UPS guys can’t stop, neither can Canada Post.” “Due to the curvature of this stretch of road, the stopping restrictions are longer than would be typically seen along a straight portion of roadway.”
“People won’t want to buy a house when they can't park in front of their house. Say they have two kids that have cars. Where do you park? You'll have to go half a block down,” Stone said. “While this may impact parking in front of your home, we hope you understand the importance of ensuring safe crossing for pedestrians in your neighbourhood.”
