In Oshawa, it is no longer funny. A few secondary roads in the downtown area have been one- way for some years. But today the municipality's main east-west arteries -- King and Bond -- became one-way thoroughfares, "It is mainly a' matter of jeducation now," says a city Simcoe Parking Situation 'Bug' Bites City Stores Part of Oshawa's downtown| King-Bond Systems Are 'Go For One-Way engineering department spokes-|and.

Total restriction of parking on| the block-long stretch of Sim- coe st., between King and Bond sts., has got some of the busi- nessmen mad. New traffic regu- lations have moved bus parking north of the Four Corners for south-bound buses. The change was put into effect for the convenience 'of west- bound travellers who wish to transfer to south-bound buses. The parking spaces for north- | bound buses have been extended from two to three -- and all parking meters on the block have been uprooted. No parking signs now apply to the stretch.
