Outside of the downtown area green zones can be found adjacent to businesses like liquor stores, which typically have a high volume of short visits. Red Zones - No Parking Red Curbs are necessary for the smooth and safe operations of public transit, fire responders, and in general, all motorists.
Red curbs are also necessary for other areas where a parked car will limit visibility for traffic, pedestrians or bike riders. The City aggressively enforces its no parking areas. No stopping, standing or parking is allowed at any time at a red curb.
No-parking signage is sometimes used instead of a red curb, but they are similarly enforced. No-parking areas are found all over the city. A bus may stop in a red zone marked or signed as a bus zone. They can be installed on any intersection corner to maintain safe and efficient visibility, or on certain segments of streets where narrow street widths impede the flow the traffic or create unsafe driving conditions.
Red Tipping — Keeping your Driveway Approach Clear Ever try to get into your driveway only to find that the entrance is squeezed tight or partially blocked by parked cars? We can help you with a special curb marking called Red Tipping.
Red Tips can be installed typically in the following situations: Short sections of red curbing, normally requested by property owners, can be installed on either side of a driveway to promote better maneuverability into and out of the driveway and to improve visibility from the driveway.
The amount of red tipping will be installed in a way that minimizes the loss of existing on-street parking spaces. Driveway red tipping can be installed to eliminate non-standard parking spaces less than 18 feet between driveways — a condition that sometimes leads to one or both driveways being partially blocked by parked vehicles.
A typical driveway red-tipping installation would include up to approximately five feet of red curbing on either side of the driveway. However, the length of red curb installed at each location could be adjusted on a case-by-case basis depending on other factors, such as minimizing the loss of adjacent on-street parking spaces and operations at adjacent driveways. Parking restrictions for driveway red tipping is enforceable just as any other no-parking red zone in the City. Any vehicle, including that of the property owner, can be cited for parking in a driveway red tipping zone.
