City launches surveys for Parking Modernization Study

The City of Prince George is calling for input on parking in the downtown and Hospital parking zones through an online survey that launches today. (Monday)

In February, the City announced they would be launching the Parking Modernization Study, which is aimed at assessing and improving parking in those two areas.

This stemmed from a Notice of Motion put forward to City Council by Councillor Kyle Sampson last year.

The City says this study will help optimize municipal parking supply, enhance parking operations and enforcement, and align with the City’s long-term planning objectives, including the Civic Core District Plan.

Two surveys are available and will remain open until the end of April:

The public survey includes questions on parking availability, costs, accessibility needs, EV parking, active transportation options like cycling, and more.

In addition to the surveys, direct engagement with downtown businesses and organizations such as the Downtown Business Association, Chamber of Commerce, and Tourism Prince George is planned.

The plan is for the findings of the study and the public input to be presented to Council in July.
