    Two More Two-Wheeler Parking Spots Added

    Two more two-wheel motor vehicle parking spots were just added Downtown, allowing more room for scooters and motorcycles to easily find a place to park. These two additions bring the grand total of two-wheeler parking areas up to 25, with room for over 275 vehicles to park.

    One addition is on the north side of Gay Street between 4th and 5th Streets, in front of the Neighborhood Launch development. These spaces can serve residents on Gay Street, as well as commuters to area businesses and restaurants.

    The other new parking area is located on the east side of Front Street just south of Vine Street, making use of a thin strip of asphalt that has little use outside of parallel parking for two-wheeled vehicles. These spaces can serve residents in the nearby Battleship Building and Arena Crossing Apartments as well as visitors to the North Market and various destinations along Park Street and in the Arena District.

    The parking permit sticker for using these spaces costs $50 per year and can be purchased at the City’s Parking Violations Bureau located at 400 W. Whittier Street. Parking enforcement in most spaces only runs until 5pm though (always check your parking signs to be sure) so a parking permit is not required for use in the evening or on Sundays or Holidays.
