Have you used the new parking system downtown?
Yes
No
I haven't seen them, but it seems like taking time to read them and figure out where they are directing you to would not work unless you are stopped at a red light and have time to figure them out. By the time you might reach where you were directed to the space may be gone. Seems like a waste.

It does not work. It tells you. But until it holds it for you to get there, its pointless.

Very distracting. We should be looking out for pedestrians, other drivers and traffic signals. How are visitors going to know where the Mirror Pond Lot is or the Centennial Garage is?

The system was installed to have a negative effect on downtown patrons so to add to the City Councils long term plan of removing cars from downtown.

It's just a distraction. By the time you get to an open spot it could be gone. We're just staying away from downtown.

It's not particularly helpful. The lot names on the signs are too small to read while watching traffic and for pedestrians. The only reason I could read it was that we were stopped for a red light.
