City officials in Ethridge are currently assessing the financial implications of installing “no parking” signs on several critical streets throughout the area. This initiative comes in response to numerous complaints from residents about vehicles consistently parking on certain narrow streets, which has led to difficulties in navigating these thoroughfares. The situation raises significant concerns, particularly regarding the accessibility of emergency vehicles that may need to traverse these streets in urgent situations.
According to existing city regulations, parking is prohibited on streets that obstruct or hinder the flow of traffic. In light of this, local leaders are committed to addressing the issue and will reconvene to discuss potential solutions once they have gathered more information on the costs involved in implementing the signage. The aim is to ensure that the streets remain safe and accessible for all residents and emergency services alike.
