NEW HAVEN CITYWIDE, EMERGENCY PARKING BAN WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT OVERNIGHT
NEW HAVEN CITYWIDE, EMERGENCY PARKING BAN WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT
OVERNIGHT
New Haven – Mayor Toni N. Harp said this afternoon that provisions of
the citywide, emergency parking ban will remain in effect overnight
tonight. The parking ban includes an outright prohibition on downtown
streets and Emergency Snow Routes, and no parking on the odd-numbered
side of the remainder of city streets.
Mayor Harp reinforced the public safety concerns prompting the parking
ban. “The snow and ice deposited by this winter storm has to be
cleared away before it freezes – the parking ban allows snow removal
equipment better access to city streets to allow private vehicles to
pass but most importantly, to allow fire trucks and ambulances to get
through if and as necessary,” Mayor Harp said.
City officials also announced that the downtown portion of the ban,
inside Howe Street, Martin Luther King Boulevard, State Street and Grove
Street, will be rescinded Tuesday morning at 6:00. New Haven Public
Schools officials will make a decision about Tuesday operations at 5:00
a.m.
Mayor Harp also reminded residents that Governor Malloy signed an order
extending property tax filing deadlines statewide.

NEW HAVEN CITYWIDE PARKING BAN ANNOUNCED
New Haven – Mayor Toni N. Harp has announced a citywide parking ban
to allow public works and emergency vehicles better access to city
streets – the parking restrictions are intended to streamline the
city’s response to this week’s snowstorm.
The parking ban will be in place beginning at 1:00 a.m. Monday,
February 2nd and extend until further notice.
“New Haven is on full alert despite the uncertainty of the weather
forecast – we anticipate a coordinated, comprehensive response to the
snow, sleet, ice, wind, and freezing conditions we might experience. The
city’s response will be improved by cooperation from city
residents,” Mayor Harp said. “We’re again asking for compliance
with parking ban restrictions and we hope those residents and businesses
with extra driveway space will invite neighbors to park there so the
streets stay clear and accessible.”
“To the extent we work together we’ll minimize the inconvenience
and disruptive potential of this storm and maximize public safety,”
Mayor Harp added.
The parking ban includes downtown New Haven (the area encircled by
Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard, State Street, Grove Street, and Howe
Street), posted snow emergency routes, and the odd-numbered side of all
other city streets.
Free alternative parking is available in New Haven Public Schools
parking lots, city park parking lots, the Granite Square parking garage,
and for a $3 per day fee, at the Temple Street parking garage beginning
Sunday at 5:30 p.m. Residents are also reminded the neighborhood parking
remains permissible on the even-numbered side of city streets.
All storm related inquires can be directed to the city’s Office of
Emergency Management at 203-946-8221 or the city’s Snow Line at
203-946-SNOW.
