The businesses in the affected area are a part of Dormont, while the road is part of Mount Lebanon.

The problem, longstanding, is apparently that parked cars in those 5 or 6 spaces create a *choke point* in what is supposed to be 2-lane traffic flow, particularly during weekday rush hours.
I believe the Mt. Lebanon Commission will possibly consider no parking in those spaces during rush hours on a trial basis to see if the traffic and safety problems are eliminated or significantly reduced. If not, the next step would be removal. The Chief of Police seemed OK with this approach during a recent public discussion session.
