KELLY calls for Town Hall car park to be relined!


Town Hall car park MUST be relined

 SDLP Cllr. Patsy Kelly has called on DRD Roads Service and other relevant authorities, to carry out the necessary work to have the lines at the Town Hall car park repainted.


Mr Kelly said “The car park has been an issue for quite some time with a considerable number of constituents approaching our office, regarding the fading, and at times confusing, layout of the parking lines. The biggest fear for drivers using the car park is if they are not parked properly within the lines they are liable to be given a fine by traffic wardens.”

“Most of the concern has been from older drivers who, due to their eyesight, struggle to see the white lines and are worried they will be fined for not being parked properly. The car park has yellow lines, disabled badges and white lines intertwined, leaving parking there very confusing. I would like to see the car park relined in order to remove the confusion being experienced by drivers using the Town Hall car park.”

West-Tyrone Constituency Representative Daniel McCrossan also commented saying “The SDLP Team have been in contact with DRD Roads Service in relation to the Town Hall car park, enquiring about getting the lines repainted. We have on numerous occasions been told there were plans to have the car park repaired, yet nothing has been done. We would like to see the matter resolved as this is a very busy town centre car park.”
