Show Council Investigates Parking Conditions in City The City Council, upon the suggestion of the police department, depart-ment, has approved parallel parking on 200 West street adjacent ad-jacent to the Iron County hospital hospi-tal to eliminate a traffic congestion conges-tion problem, and a study is being be-ing made of the possibility of the same action on South Main street. With many cars parked diagonally diag-onally on both sides of the street in front of the hospital during visiting hours there is but little room left for moving traffic which creates a hazard. As soon as signs can be installed parel-lei parel-lei parking on this section of the street will be started. It is to be effective on 200 West street from the intersection of 200 South to the end of the hospital property. Diagonal parking will continue in front of the hospital on 200 South street. A study is being made to determine de-termine whether it would be feasible fea-sible to establish parallel parking park-ing on both sides of Main street from Center street to 200 South to eliminate a traffic hazard. There is much parking done in this section with the increased business development on the street, and this together with heavy traffic on the street has created a traffic hazard police officers report. Action on this matter will probably be taken at the next meeting of the City Council. |
