Commissioner worried over Ramsey flood wall design

A Ramsey commissioner says he's worried flood prevention proposals for the town's harbour will halve the amount of parking nearby.

The Department of Infrastructure has applied for planning permission to put up a four-foot barrier as part of work on West Quay, East Quay and Derby Road.

On Facebook, Juan McGuinness says the plans would cut on-street parking from 104 spaces to just 52.

And he also says he's concerned about the height of the flood wall, saying it would alter the openness of the quayside and block views of the harbour for some.
