It is proposed to introduce parking restrictions to prevent parking along Market Street from its junction with Hoyle Street for a distance of 180 metres northwards on the western side of the carriageway.
This includes widening of the footway and reducing the carriageway width to improve cycle facilities and to encourage cyclists along the Valley of Stone Cycle route.
Consultation and formal advertising of the proposals has been undertaken with objections received from the Town Council.
