The new parking arrangement in the town have recently been described as shambolic and diabolical, and I must agree. I have noticed over the past few weeks that the once-free car parks at Lochavullin and Altantis are almost empty.
One morning at 10am last week there were seven cars in the Lochavullin car park, when in the past this would have been full or almost full.
The new parking arrangements have only created ‘wild parking’ in areas such as Glencruitten Road, Gallanach Road, Lochavullin Road, Rockfield Road, the hospital car park, the South Pier private car park, to name but a few.
