Back-in, angled parking has arrived in Winnipeg. Watch this video to see what it’s all about.
Basic instructions:
- Find an open stall and signal to let others know you intend to park.
- Drive just past the stall and stop.
- Reverse into the space, using your side mirrors to view the lines.
Winnipeg’s first back-in, angled parking area will be located on Bannatyne Avenue between Rorie Street and Waterfront Drive. It aims to increase available on-street parking in the Exchange District. To accommodate the trial parking configuration, this section of Bannatyne Avenue will be converted to one-way in the westbound direction.
The angled parking on the south side of Bannatyne Avenue will increase the parking capacity by adding 10 additional back-in, angled stalls. For now, it will be a pilot project lasting approximately 8 months.
