Thank you for that. I'm just realising how "tame" my area is with parking in comparison to places in the US. There are new ones being built though, so it's actively getting as bad as it is there

This was the query I ran if anyone wants to reuse it

It did pick up some street parking, but only the ones that had it in the middle not the sides (like the ones where there's a bus lane on the left)
