Sparwood overhauling traffic and parking regulations

The District of Sparwood is updating its traffic parking and highways bylaw with changes coming soon.

The updated bylaw is focusing on cost recovery of infrastructure damage due to materials on roads, amending lane parking to match street parking restrictions and reviewing other parking regulations.

The original bylaw was introduced in 1987 and has seen some amendments since then.

In the winter months, there is a parking prohibition on all streets within the district, but under the new bylaw some streets would be exempt.

That includes Centennial Street, Centennial Plaza and a portion of Douglas Fir Road and Sparwood Drive.

More information on the changes can be found here.

The draft bylaw will be coming back to council in the near future for three readings and adoptions.
