As designed Parsing URL with + (Google+ pages)

Well, that's roughly correct - the "+" in a URL is actually considered to be an encoded space. We URL decode printable URLs to make them more readable.

Where are you pasting this URL from? A literal + would be encoded.
 
Then this is generally expected -- the URL that you see (with the space) is actually the URL that the browser is requesting.
