McCarthy supports business groups’ opposition to car parking changes

Alliance Strangford representative Kieran McCarthy has supported the campaign by business groups who are opposed to the increase in on street car park charging in town centres.

Kieran McCarthy said: “I am fully behind these business groups who are opposed to the increase in on street car park charging.

“In this time when we should be doing all that we can to support local businesses, I find it strange that we would try to put people off going to our local traders by increasing on street car park charging.

“Some may view this issue as minor, but it could threaten the livelihood of some of our local traders.

“I would urge the Department for Regional Development to reconsider this issue, I hope they make the right call in reversing this unfair decision.”
