Many cyclists are sick of getting ticketed when parking their cars to finish their daily commutes by bike.

The City of Ottawa is looking at turning some parking spaces, inside its parks, into park-and-cycle spots, allowing suburban residents to complete their daily commutes by bicycle.

Many Kanata residents have already been driving to and parking at Andrew Haydon Park before cycling downtown.

The problem is that some of them have been getting tickets for leaving their vehicles there all day without actually using the park.

Listen to Vice-President of the Healthy Transportation Coalition of Ottawa Trevor Haché on 1310 NEWS:

Kanata North City Councillor Marianne Wilkinson is in favour of the park-and-cycle idea, and wants those cyclists to be able to make use of lots like the one at Andrew Haydon Park.

"The parks [used for park-and-cycle project] obviously have to be near a cycling route, and these ones happen to be on a major cycling route," she said.

The city's transportation committee asked Wednesday, that administration be directed to look into the idea, and come back with a report early next year.
