Illegal Parking Near Railroad and Third
Statement from EPD Chief Travis Bennett:
EPD personnel have observed illegal, unsafe parking patterns near the intersection of Railroad Avenue and Third Street.
Drivers are reminded that, in this area, the only allowed street parking is either (1) parallel to the curb in front of the Station Square Office Complex, (2) in the angled parking spaces along the side of the Delmonte Market, or (3) parallel to the curb adjacent to the city parking lot near the Davis Trust Company. Aside from two spots reserved for tour buses on the other side of the street, parking is not allowed anywhere else on Railroad Avenue, including in the wide area of the street adjacent to the Delmonte and Station Square. Cars parked anywhere other than the designated spots cause confusion and hazards and may be ticketed and towed.
Free parking is available in the city hall parking lot, located at the intersection of Fourth Street and Railroad Avenue.
