Well the Doubles Vendor is actually on the pavement/verge and not on the road and one can always park on the side road with the hospital if going by him.

Its because stupid Trinis cant park on one side of the road and allow traffic to move freely. Double parking causes a serious problem in that area at nights

How could this decision be a war on street food? The notice is about the parking, not the vending (unless there's another notice out there banning the vending also). So doubles man, who is selling street food, should be good to go still. It's as hustla_ambition101 said, when Trinis only moving selfish selfish with their parking, this is the result.

But just like with a lot of other issues in Trinidad would it be enforced?

Pasea Main Road was made no parking but in the absence of enforcement parking continues.
Also all those no entry signs on roads indicating restricted access between certain hours e.g. Evans Street and Watts Street...lots of ppl break the law there.

Those food trucks make it difficult to see traffic heading south on Morequito Avenue when exiting Valpark Shopping Plaza. People speeding on Morequito Avenue also don't help the situation. I for one support the parking ban.

most of the vending is done from vehicles, food trucks, vans etc. No parking would mean the foods trucks and vans also cannot park there.

I know the majority of the vendors operate from a vehicle, food truck etc. and park up in order to sell. Yes the decision will stop them from selling, but it only stops them from selling there. Since they can go and set up in another area, I still don't see this decision as the beginning of the war on street food. It might however be viewed as the end of the war on street food being sold in Valsayn.

In any event, when the authorities are trying to put order in a place (that area in Valsayn had little and was getting worst), people view that as a war on the vendors? Seriously? So what's the position of other people driving pass and living there? What should the gov't do when the back up gets so bad it prevents traffic from flowing in and out of Valsayn freely-leading to backups on the highway? What should the gov't do, when the parking is negatively impacting users of registered business places (Valpark, Superfarm, the private hospital, Gas station)

Superpharm and Valpark causes traffic as well though insufficient parking.
Valpark on a lunch time basically everyday and Superpharm on some evenings have so much customers that some park on Morequito blocking the filter lane. Should those two businesses be closed down or asked to move?

Yup Valpark on a lunchtime is a mess and it spills out to the highway causing even more congestion.

Why is the fine for parking along this stretch higher than the fine for breaching other no parking signs?

Blame the food truck owners who either leave thier trucks there permanantly or out cones to reserver "thier" spot as well as blocking the side walks with chairs reserved for themselves

They could approach the mall to use the carpark at night for a lower price?
