A RESIDENTS parking scheme is inching closer for residents of the Bogside, says a local politician.Sinn Féin Councillor Colly Kelly said: “I am glad that the Permanent secretary to the Department of Infrastructure has now set out a timeline in a written to response to Karen Mullan MLA .
“Our party has been campaigning for a residents parking scheme in the Bogside from as far back as 2007.They have met with residents from the area on many occasions over the years.
“The Triax management team have also been working very hard on the issue and have collected surveys of resident’s views on any proposed scheme and facilitated a public consultation on behalf of the then DRD Roads Service.
“This has been a very long campaign and the issue of residents parking has constantly been caught up in red tape.Its good to finally see light at the end of the tunnel,” he added.
