The owners of cars parked in bicycle and bus lanes downtown could get a ticket in the mail if a city camera snaps the infraction, as part of a pilot program announced Wednesday by Mayor Lori Lightfoot.The Chicago City Council could vote on what the mayor’s office called a “small scale” pilot program as soon as Feb. 1 – less than a month before Election Day.
Drivers who park their cars in dedicated bicycle and bus lanes, as well as crosswalks, bus stops and no parking zones could be ticketed if the infraction is captured by city cameras mounted on poles and on the front of buses and other city vehicles, officials said. A separate effort would use digital license plate readers to enforce parking restrictions in loading zones downtown, and prevent drivers from parking in the spots too long – or without authorization, officials said.
The City Council voted unanimously in December to give employees of the Department of Finance — not just members of the Chicago Police Department — the authority to order vehicles blocking the bicycle lane to be ticketed and towed.
