Residents and commuters parking on King Street East need to find alternative spots this Tuesday, March 3. The City of Saint John has announced a temporary parking interruption to allow crews to perform essential snow clearing and removal operations.

Specific Location and Timing

The restriction is in effect on Tuesday, March 3, from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. This applies specifically to King Street East, stretching from Carmarthen Street down to the dead end.

Enforcement and Fines

City crews require the street completely clear to operate snow removal equipment safely and effectively. To ensure compliance, temporary “No Parking” signs go up at least eight hours prior to the start of work.
