Motorists are advised that when parking your vehicles on HRM streets that you still must follow parking regulations even with all of the snow has fallen in the last few weeks. When vehicles are parked on both sides of the road, there must be enough distance between the vehicles to allow for other larger vehicles, such as buses and fire trucks, to get through easily. In fact, section 148(1) of the Motor Vehicle Act (MVA) stipulates that you cannot stop or park in a business or residential area when less than three metres width of roadway remains for traffic.
