The Town of Tecumseh is encouraging residents to take note of a new parking option designed to improve safety and traffic flow. A newly opened municipal parking lot between St. Jacques Street and First Street now features reverse angle parking, also known as back-in angled parking.
This method offers several advantages over traditional forward-facing parking, including:
- Enhanced visibility when exiting
- Reduced collisions thanks to minimized blind spots
- Greater safety for children as doors open toward the sidewalk
- Easier maneuvering in tight spaces
- Smoother, less stressful exits
- Improved traffic flow with better sightlines for drivers
- Residents are invited to try it out and experience the benefits firsthand.
