Hillcrest Avenue in Gainesville will not become a one-way street, for now, but residents will need to be careful not to block traffic when they park. The city plans to post signs banning cars from blocking the street, then follow up with police enforcement to address concerns with emergency vehicle traffic. Emergency vehicles and trash trucks were having trouble getting through the narrow street, which has few driveways.
