'''Alternate side parking''' is a traffic law that dictates on which side of a street cars can be [[Parking|parked]] on a given day. The law is intended to promote efficient flow of traffic, as well as to allow [[street sweeper]]s and [[snowplow]]s to reach the curb without parked cars impeding their progress. Some proponents also regard the law, which can be quite inconvenient for drivers, as a way to encourage the use of public transportation.<ref>{{cite web|title=Parking|author=Gail Robinson|publisher=Gotham Gazette|url=http://www.gothamgazette.com/article//20050411/200/1376|accessdate=October 16, 2006}}</ref>
