New Parking restrictions in
Formby Village, what are your views?
AFTER objections raised over charges on
Sumner Road Car Park, Formby, 2 surveys were commissioned for the Harington and
Ravenmeols Wards and carried out in September 2015 and also in April 2017.
We are told that:- "In both surveys, special attention was also given to
several areas where complaints had already been received, regarding obstructive
and dangerous parking."
The latest survey results have shown that no parking displaced has happened into
surrounding roads and now restrictions are required in some areas.
It is now planned to introduce a number of waiting restrictions on:- Halsall
Lane, Gores Lane, Lonsdale Road, Rosemary Lane, Freshfield Road and also on Duke
Street.

Johnston; who is the Team Leader (Highway Safety) proposed waiting restrictions
