1. Alternate-side parking

Alternate-side parking is a parking system in which vehicles must park on different sides of a street at different times or on different dates. The system may be used to keep streets accessible, distribute parking or allow activities such as street cleaning or maintenance.

The applicable side may change daily, weekly, monthly or according to another schedule. Drivers must check the local signs and rules carefully, because the timing and method of changing sides differ between countries and municipalities.

When must you move a vehicle to the other side?

The changeover time depends on the local rules. Drivers should check the signs carefully because some systems require vehicles to change sides at a particular time or on specific dates.
