Councillor calls for multi-location parking permit for city organisations

Limerick Green Party councillor Séan Hartigan.

GREEN Party councillor Seán Hartigan wants to see the Council introduce a multi-location parking permit for certain approved organisations operating within the city centre area.

This, he said at last month’s Metropolitan District meeting, would enable certain charities and voluntary groups to park their vehicle at various locations throughout the city in order to deliver essential and important services to people in the city centre area.

Senior engineer with the Council’s Transport and Mobility Directorate, Hugh McGrath, said it is important to consider the amenity and economic value of street space.

“Any decisions that might reduce availability of our street space need to align with economic and mobility objectives as set out in the Limerick Development Plan 2022-2028,” Mr McGrath explained.
