Water St. parking

I like this one - the City Council is debating whether to restrict parking on Water St. south side from Federal St. to Independent St.

I have no idea where Independent St. is, but this is the area around The Tannery.

This is a nightmare stretch of road, right up to Market Square. It's the way I - and everyone on this side of town, I would guess - get into town. Even before The Tannery, it's awful.

And when there's a truck, delivering stuff to The Tannery - well, did I mention it's a nightmare?

And further along, towards town? I've already moaned and groaned about not being able to see oncoming cars when pulling out from a side street/parking lot because of the cars parked along the street.

Having said that, I think it only needs to be restricted during the day. It all clears out after business hours.

Gillian, Independent Street is the small street abutting the west side of the Tannery. It runs parallel to Federal but not as far.
