(cross-posted in the Parking Reform International facebook group): Report on the implementation of parking meters in the Hipódromo Neighborhood of Mexico City. "Hipódromo experiences high parking demand mostly due to an increase in workers who every day occupy on-street parking spaces and use these spaces for parking free of charge. Motorists often double park and invade sidewalks and pedestrian access areas during extended periods of time. Local residents and short-term visitors have been brusquely pushed aside, forcing them to now invest disproportionate periods of time in cruising for a parking space. ... Another negative effect is the promotion of the myth of a parking shortage, and therefore about the need to build or generate new off-street parking spaces."
