New Bedford, Massachusetts- In an effort to improve parking ban adherence, the City of New Bedford has increased emergency snow parking ban fines to $50.00 per ticket effective January 27, 2010.

When an emergency snow Parking Ban is in effect the public is advised that parking is allowed on the north side of all streets that run east and west and on the east side of all streets running north and south. Parking is permitted on the side of the street that is opposite the fire hydrant, no vehicles should be parked on the same side of the street as a fire hydrant. On the streets that are regularly posted for parking on one side of the street only, residents are to obey those signs as usual. In addition, a double side parking ban takes effect in both the Acushnet Avenue Business District and the Downtown Business District during Emergency Snow Parking Bans.
