Once
the city of Somerville's new parking regulations take effect on January
4, streets like New Washington Street and Middlesex Avenue won't have
to tolerate illegal overnight parking from truckers any longer. A large
number of trucks that usually park on both of these city streets can no
longer use them as a storage area for their own personal use.
Residential parking permits and commercial business permits will be
required on vehicles to park on these streets, that will help to
eliminate the same continuous problem from re-occurring day after day.
