“The lack of car parking spaces and disability space in the Ballsgrove Shopping area has become a pressing issue for the community” says independent candidate Peter James Nugent. 

“This area is a hub of activity with popular businesses such as Centra, Calluna salon, Tony’s Takeaway, Kuppa Koffee and Grove Pharmacy, and it is necessary for the local council to address this issue” he said.  

“Adequate parking spaces are crucial for customers and employees, and it will also reduce the problem of double parking and using the car park of the Health centre, which can create inconvenience for the patients.

“It is important for the local council to take prompt action to ensure the smooth functioning of this area and to provide convenience to the community. 

“When it comes to looking forward to the future, Nugent understands the needs of local businesses who were in favour of my  idea of benches outside the cafe and Centra.”
