Wondering if they were told to park out judging by the painted ref points on the road, maybe some digging to commerce shortly.

I'd be sorta thinking the same, council works. Maybe that strip wasnt re finished due to parked cars or something along those lines and people actually listned to the councils request. Listening to the council is probably doubtful.

Some sort of local protest?
We had a housing development put in on our short cut road around the lake in my old suburb. The newbies then started parking in a similar manner to protest the locals using their road as a thoroughfare ![]()

Must admit this photo is a bit of a mystery with parking. |

No. The cars are parked in the right place, there is a bike path against the kerb and a buffer strip between the bike path and the cars. Resurfacing has removed the painted markings for the buffer strip but you can see it in google maps ( https://www.google.com/maps/@-37.833...er=0&entry=ttu ). Cheers again MD
