suva2-e1386895321339Fiji Roads Authority is appealing to motorists not park vehicles on footpaths, yellow lines and on nature strips.

This is after the FRA has witnessed a number of cars parking illegally around Suva City.

FRA General Manager Network Operations and Maintenance Aram Goes says unauthorised parking contributed to severe and unnecessary traffic congestion poses a risk to pedestrians.

He said the yellow lines were also there for a reason and regularly ignored by motorist causing driver frustration and delays.

Frequently the dedicated parking spaces for those with disabilities are also ignored as a result they cannot go about their daily activities.

Goes has reiterated the traffic lanes are under reconstruction between the new Stinson Parade Bridge and the Suva Market, and that part of Usher Street and Harris Street is not to be used for parking.

Goes is confident that the use of Stinson Parade Bridge will see parts of the Suva City centre traffic flow return to its original layout prior to the bridge closure and reduce journey times through that part of town.

He said the FRA is working closely with the Suva City Council to curb the issue of illegal parking and motorist that are found breaking the law will be dealt accordingly.
