Double yellows for Market Street

ROADS Service is to introduce a short section of double yellow lines on Market Street, Ballymoney.

In a letter to Ballymoney Borough Council, Roads Service explained: ‘We have been made aware that vehicles parking on the left hand side of Market Street, Ballymoney, heading out of town, are causing problems for people exiting from the various commercial premises.

‘As a preliminary step, we provided a small section of hatching at the entrances of these premises to defer parking so close. This worked for a short time, however now there are vehicles parking on top of the hatching and creating further difficulties exiting.

‘We now propose to introduce a short section of double yellow lines at the entrance of 22 to 26 Market Street as this seems to be the one causing problems.

‘This will allow better site splays and create better visibility for vehicles wishing to exit on to Market Street’.
