Parking concern near intersection noted; issue relates to existing parking restrictions (distance from corner and parking direction). Referred to enforcement; no new signage planned at this time due to prioritization.

Thank you for flagging this. Parking too close to the intersection and facing the wrong direction can reduce visibility and create safety concerns for people driving, biking, and walking. There are existing rules that prohibit parking within a certain distance of intersections and require vehicles to park in the direction of travel, so this is primarily an enforcement issue. At this time, we are prioritizing new signs and curb changes at higher-risk locations across the city, so we are not planning to install additional signage here. I’ll share this with our enforcement team for awareness, and you can also contact Parking Enforcement (812-349-3436) directly if the issue continues. We can continue to monitor the location and revisit if conditions persist or worsen.
