Galway County Council is exploring options for more parking in Tuam - including a new carpark.
At a meeting this week, local councillors received a local business delegation, who brought with them a survey signed by 1,800 shoppers.
It outlined their frustration with the parking facilities in Tuam, and the impact it's having on Tuam as a shopping destination.
Council management confirmed a "number of possibilities" are being examined to address the chronic parking situation.

One option being explored is long-term parking in an open area behind O' Toole's SuperValu.
Independent Councillor Karey McHugh-Farag says doing nothing is not an option.
