    Its more parking we need not less, you have to remember that the whole of country Galway needs to be able to park in town when they go in shopping, its not just the few people that drive in who could get a bus that park their cars in town.

    More parking in the city center will only increase congestion on the roads in the city center. Its supply and demand.

    So the Council have closed this car park down!!! NOT IMPRESSED!!! Sour grapes I would imagine... It was pulling their profit from Dyke road car park! :mad:

    If any of you parked there everyday for the past few months... start making phone calls.. complain give out do what ever it takes for them to let them re-open this car park! Just remember we were making a saving of €480 a year by parking in this car park!!

    Fingers crossed they will allow them to re-open in the new year!

    While you're at it, ignore all the other unauthorised developments around town. Shure tis Ireland, who needs to bother their hole applying for planning permission for their makeshift carpark?

    No, the point is that the council are refusing to allow that site to be used as a car park. There can be no logical reason for this.

    The woman who runs it, told me that the site had permission to be used as a car park but it had subsequently expired and that the planner's said they would be opposing any renewal under any circumstances, even of a temporary nature. So, she is now forced to fight an unnecessary uphill battle.

    Why not let it be used as a car park? It looked like a kip for years! As least now someone is trying to make positive use out of it. The local government should be helping her and not shooting her down. Gob****es.

    Well said :D

    And your quiet right... Why not let someone make something positive out of it... The council are loosing money on the Dyke so by refusing the new car park they know we all have to park back in there!! Gob****es is right!!!
