2.0 BACKGROUND
2.1 A nwnber of parking complaints have been received regarding parking at the intersection of
Beaver Street North and King Street East
2.2 A verbal request was received from three residents of Prestonway Drive, Bowmanville, to
post the south side of the street as "No Parlcing".
3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT
3.1 Beaver Street North, Newcastle
Beaver Street North was reconstructed during 1998 between King Street East and Andrew
Street. As part of the reconstruction a paved boulevard was introduced on the east side
which could accommodate parlcing. The existing Traffic By-law 91-58 still shows that
parking is prohibited on the east side but permitted on the west side. The By-law should
now be modified to permit some parlcing on the east side where the paved boulevard is wide
enough to accommodate parking and prohibit it on the west side where it would impede
traffic.
Parking should still be prohibited on the east side of Beaver Street South from King Street
East to a point 75 metres northerly for three reasons:
. Paved boulevard is too narrow to accommodate a vehicle;
. Residents have complained of excessive parking problems in this area; and
. Parking across from the "Super Mailbox" would interfere with traffic as residents are
stopping to access their mail.
3.2 Prestonway Drive, Bowmanvil1e
The areas between driveways where motorists are trying to park on the south side of
Prestonway Drive are too short to accommodate vehicles and leave the required one metre
distance to permit safe access by residents. Staff agree with the three residents that there are
more legal parking opportunities on the north side and that parking on the south side should
be prohibited.

4.0 CONCLUSIONS
4.1 From the above, it is concluded that Traffic By-law 91-58 should be amended to incorporate
changes requested by residents.
