How Should Winnipeg Manage Parking and Curbside Space?
Official title: Winnipeg Parking \u0026 Mobility Strategy
Why This Matters
Drive in Winnipeg? This affects where you park and how much it costs. The city is rethinking how street space gets divided between parking, bike lanes, patios, and delivery zones. Business owners and commuters alike will feel the changes over the next five years.
What Could Change
The strategy is now the official five-year plan for the Winnipeg Parking Authority. Implementation will include changes to how curbside space is allocated, potentially expanding paid parking areas, and new rules for ridesharing and carsharing services. Several actions will require further community input before final decisions.
Key Issues
- How should curbside space be balanced between parking, transit, cycling, and other uses?
- Should paid parking areas be expanded?
