Vehicle Parking in Bike Lanes

<p>2 weeks ago I phoned 311 to file a complaint about vehicles parking in the bike lane along Purcells Cove Rd, which so happened to be Bike Week and Greek Fest.</p> <p>Earlier in the week, I had been riding to Dartmouth and phoned 311 to complain that there were vehicles parked along prince Albert Rd. </p> <p>I had an email reply from 311 saying that there was NO response, because the parking enforcement officer(s) were busy to respond to the Purcells Cove Rd complaint and the officer should up 3 hours later to Prince Albert Rd and there were no cars there !</p> <p>So my question is - why even paint lines designated as bike lanes, if vehicles park in them and parking enforcement don't even bother showing up !!! I sent an email off to the mayor, councillor McCluskey and Watts. Councillor Watts was the only one to reply ! The email was sent in regards to the Mayor saying he wouldn't mind seeing fewer tickets handed out during special events and Councillor McCluskey stated that as long as it wasn't a safety issue, whay ticket the vehicles !</p> <p>To me this is a problem ! </p> <p> </p>
