Competing Curbside Needs

Access to curb space is a complex issue that involves competing demands from a number of different uses:

On-street parking for local residents and visitors
Dedicated delivery space for trucks and couriers making commercial deliveries
Pick-up and drop-off spaces for ride share vehicles
Connected and automated vehicles
Emerging micro mobility options

Understanding Curbside Management

Without a clear understanding, management process, and communication plan for how this space is being used, the curbside can devolve into conflict, inefficiency, and frustration for everyone involved.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Toronto announced ten temporary parking and curb lane pedestrian zones in an effort to encourage physical distancing in high traffic areas around essential businesses.

The program will eventually expand to include 100 locations. IBI Group’s curbside management team developed an interactive map to help the public understand regulations that may have changed in their area.
