City bars two way traffic plan for North Mercer Street
The City Parking Authority request to make North Mercer Street between East Washington Street and North Street two way was denied by the city. City engineer David Kite cited high costs and potential traffic jams from new signals at East Washington Street and North Street set at about 20000 dollars per intersection, plus possible issues from ten curb cuts near banks and the garage. Mayor Angelo J. Sands endorsed the engineer’s view, saying city disadvantages would outweigh garage benefits. The authority also urged downtown merchants to join a token validation program for the garage, selling one hour tokens for 30 cents and distributing them with every five dollar purchase. Over 40 merchants participate. tokens are also used at Troutman’s lot. Fines for parking and meter violations are now processed at the garage office on North Mercer Street, not the police station.
