With Parking Meters Extinct, Cyclists Hunt for Lock-Up Spots

When the City of Victoria first started talking about removing parking meters in favour of pay-by-stall street parking, Coun. John Luton knew there would be serious problems for cyclists.

Eliminating meter heads meant the posts could no longer be used as unofficial, but secure, spots to lock up bikes. Hundreds of bike parking spots suddenly disappeared.
