Parking enforcement has resumed on rush hour routes in Toronto.
This means designated rush hour routes are now being enforced the same way they were before the start of the pandemic.
Starting on Monday, July 4, routine towing of vehicles blocking designated rush hour routes will also start.
It’s part of the Keep Toronto Moving campaign to address the flow of traffic.

“With the return of pre-pandemic traffic volumes in the city, the resumption of traffic signal and intersection enforcement and routine rush hour-related parking enforcement activities are necessary to keep motorists and pedestrians safe,” Traffic Services Superintendent Scott Baptist previously said in a statement, “The enforcement of these regulations will help keep our city moving and facilitate getting people where they’re going, hopefully with as little disruption as possible.”
Officers are also focusing on addressing factors that lead to congestion, including vehicles blocking intersections.
