Description
It’s impossible to use my driveway because of cars blocking the driveway as well as cars parked on the opposite side of the driveway. I realize parking is a challenge in the area. I want to respect the needs of the community but if I have an emergency and need to leave my house I’ll be stuck. Can the yellow no parking stripe on the opposite side of the street be expanded? And, white lines painted on the sides of my driveway to allow for more room to pull out? This will prevent traffic jams, and potential accidents. I’ve already had several other drivers yell at me, call me names etc., because it takes so long to navigate pulling out of my driveway. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hello,
I’ve tried several times to call and provide further information as requested by after pressing #1 at the Parking office for Driveway painting it just rings. Nobody picks up and it doesn’t go to voicemail.
As stated previously it’s impossible to get in and out the Driveway with cars flanking both sides and across the street where the yellow line doesn’t extend enough to allow room to get out.
What I am hoping can be done is white lines painted on the side of the driveway to allow enough room to turn out and the yellow line that is painted across the street for a no parking zone to be extended slightly further so a car can back out without hitting a car that is parked there. It’s too tight for even my compact car to navigate without creating a traffic jam, frustrating other drivers and in a few instances I literally could not move my car and had to give up and call a Lyft for a ride.
Please paint the necessary lines. I’ve been cursed at, and people honk their horns continuously while I try to back out. It takes a lot to navigate—nearly a 20 point turn when there’s only an inch of room to negotiate.
Many, many, many thanks if you can help!
