I ride on some really new roads and there are always idling stop taking over the bicycle lanes. I don't blame them totally because there should be loading parking spots called loading zone for 15 mins max parking. The footpath is certainly wide enough to have a parallel parking spot here and there. They could double up as bus stops- there are buses but they are so infrequent. Of course it would take some degree of enforcement but better to at least signal to drivers that they can't leave their vehicles blocking a lane. Several lanes in road. Why no parking zones in new roadscapes?
