Parking in Bike Lanes Now Illegal in Richmond

We don’t know what the fine is for parking in the bike lane but I’m sure it won’t be cheap.

Bike lanes blocked by cars are no longer bike lanes. The good news is that the number of blocked bike lanes should go down soon.

Bike Walk RVA shared the following on Facebook:

Great news, and we need your help sharing!

It is now officially illegal to park in bike lanes in the City of Richmond, whether or not they have a no-parking sign. Thanks to Councilmember Andreas Addison for leading this as a part of his Safe Streets for All package!

Councilmember Addison has a new appreciation for non-car commuters after spending all of November car-free. He summed up his experience here.
