Curbside pickup will be easier in Barrie’s downtown thanks to parking changes along a stretch of Dunlop Street.
Starting today, all on-street parking spaces between Poyntz Street and Toronto Street will be “loading-only zones”.
This means you can only park in these spaces for 10 minutes or less, which will help traffic flow in the area.
All retail stores with a street entrance can provide curbside pickup and delivery as of Monday, May 11th.
*Residents are reminded about the following parking and traffic impacts still in effect due to the Dunlop St. construction project:
- Mulcaster St. to Owen St. is open to local traffic only and vehicles will have to complete a three-point turn to get out.
- There is no vehicle access or parking available on Dunlop St. from Maple St. to Mary St. and from Owen St. to Clapperton St.
- Two-hour free parking is available at the Chase McEachern Way (including 15 Bayfield St. lot) and Maple Avenue Central parking lots. You must print a receipt from the machine and display it on your vehicle dashboard to be eligible for free two-hour parking.
Starting today (May 12) all on-street parking on Dunlop St. (Poyntz St. – Toronto St.) will have a limit of standing for 10 minutes or less. This will help make it easier for businesses & customers to take advantage of curbside pickup. In effect until further notice. #Barrie
