Some Robson St. parking meters now permanently no parking? On Robson St. around Cardero and Nicola I noticed a lot of the parking meters that are nearest to an intersection have posted "no parking anytime" signs. Is this going to become permanent? Anyone hear any news stories about this? |
They are making it permanent. They will eventually remove the meters as they already have further up robson st Posted via RS Mobile |
why are they removing them?... SO stupid |
probably for more damn bike lanes :( |
Instead of blinged out cars going down Robson, it will be like that stupid CDN Tire bicycle commercial: |

THIS IS INCREDIBLY STUPID. Sure, do this during rush hour time, I don't care. However, from 8pm to morning time there's very little traffic but yet no street parking left!!! Not being able to park in these spots at any time is horrible. It actually doesn't make any sense at all when they claim the purpose of this change is to alter rush hour traffic flow. What does this have to do with night time??? |
Uhm, how about making those 23 spots restricted during rush hour and just remove the restriction on other spots? Seriously, we need to stop electing dumb people into government. |
meh, i never park my car on the side of the road anyway. Always to afraid of it getting towed or a biker bumping into me. I find a nice corner spot on the MANY MANY paid parking lots in dt. |
^^ If near Robson, I typically park in the residential area with the 2hr free parking. It's the point that people are stupid.. Remove 23 spots of street parking.. Clearly that stupid seating area infront of Cafe Crepe was not bad enough.. :pokerface: |

I can see it as a safety issue. It's hard to get through those intersections when there's vehicles parked to the corner blocking your view, causing you to drive further into the intersection to see beyond the vehicles. Accidents are caused all the time because of this. And there's a few parking garages on robson street, walk your lazy asses 3 blocks down the street to get your overpriced clothes, or whatever people buy on robson street. |
They should remove street parking all along Robson, Davie, and Granville |
