Reply to comment by lucke0204 in 5 blocks of no parking for a full week? No parking signs were put up yesterday for the upcoming week on both sides of these streets (Brunswick btwn 7th and 9th, AND 8th street). by eetzavinyl

The complaint is more about having at least 7 blocks worth of street parking unavailable for a full week all at the same time without much warning. Despite what some cars blowing through stop signs think, this isn’t a highway and doesn’t need to all be repaved all at the same time. They could stagger which blocks are being worked on at a time. I don’t mind walking a few blocks home from where I parked, that’s common. But the 7 blocks worth of cars vying for the same decreased quantity of street spots shouldn’t happen.

Looks like max 3 blocks in any direction. Max 900ft according to Google maps.

I agree with you in terms of local streets not being highways, but cyclists also benefit from well maintained roads.

If you can't deal with 5 days of reduced parking for infrastructure, you are welcome to pony up for a reserved spot.

I don’t think we’re understanding each other but thanks for the advice.
