City council has passed a motion to grant free parking at metered spots for scooters and motorcycles. Councilor Case Ootes says it’s nothing but good news all around because users will save money on parking, converted car drivers would open traffic and the two-wheelers pump out less pollution. Ootes says he’s now looking into whether the “Green P” lots will be included as well. [Via AM 640 Toronto Radio]
