Campaign for one hour free parking in Galway towns pushes ahead

A campaign to introduce one hour free parking in towns across County Galway is pushing ahead.

Councillor Declan Geraghty first made the call for Ballinasloe, and says businesses are suffering as a result of car parking charges.

A recent meeting at County Hall heard that a statutory process would be needed to amend parking bylaws, and that should be done on a county-wide basis.

The suggestion will now go before the Corporate Policy Group for consideration after positive engagement from county councillors.
