Vice-chair John Cringle says the local authority will be looking at introducing restrictions to the town

Castletown Commissioners will be carrying out a review into the parking provision across the town. 

Vice-chair John Cringle believes there's a 'fine balance' to make sure residents don't feel 'disadvantaged' whilst also looking at introducing regulations and restrictions. 

He confirmed the local authority has received a lot of 'representation' from residents who have had parking removed but believes it can do a 'very good strategy' without hearing from visitors. 

Mr Cringle says a new plan will be open to change and the commissioners will be 'big enough' to acknowledge if it hasn't worked.
