1) there are not that many stores along the road.

2) how does street parking making entering or exiting a strip mall any more difficult?

It would effectively make more efficient use of the road. When there's less traffic, why not turn the third lane into parking. It would calm the road and an enhanced perception of safety for pedestrians. We are trying to make King George be less of a thoroughfare and more of a complete street - this seems like a completely just policy. In fact, the City already has parking between 108 and 104 outside of rush hour. It should continue the whole length of the road.
