Derry city centre parking and loading bay proposals to be brought to Council

New proposals will be imminently brought to Derry and Strabane District Council to protect parking spaces, increase disabled parking and introduce loading bays in the city centre, it has been claimed.

Sinn Féin MLA Pádraig Delargy said there has been ‘positive progress’ in the city centre following ongoing engagement with the Council and local businesses.

The Foyle MLA said: “In recent weeks I have held a series of meetings with constituents, businesses and Council to see what can be done to make our city centre more accessible.

“I’m glad that by working closely together, proposals will soon be brought before Council to do just that. The three key pillars of this are: protecting parking spaces for road users, increasing the number of disabled parking spaces and introducing a loading bay for local businesses.”
