Parking enforcement relaxed in Vancouver to better serve health workers

Vancouver responded to changing demands for parking, particularly for healthcare workers, by relaxing parking enforcement in several areas. The city temporarily suspended enforcement of metered parking, rush-hour zones, residential permit-parking zones, parking time limits (including the three-hour parking restriction). With residents doing their part by staying home as much as possible, traffic volume and parking demand have dropped significantly and the need to enforce certain types of parking was deemed no longer required.
