NO CAR PARK IN OUR PARK! (Manchester Liberal Democrats Online)

Manchester Liberal Democrats Online

Manchester's Liberal Democrat Councillors, MP & MEP work hard all year round. We are fighting for better public services, and less waste & extravagance at the Town Hall.

NO CAR PARK IN OUR PARK!

9.00.00am UTC (GMT +0000) Fri 4th Jun 2004

Rusholme Liberal Democrats today launched a campaign against the development of a huge new 416-space car park in Platt Fields Park.

This permanent new car park would incorporate floodlighting and a bus turning circle.

"Our green spaces are precious. In this densely-populated area, Platt Fields is our "Green Lung," said Rusholme Councillor Paul Shannon, who lives just a hundred yards from the proposed car park.

"Local residents are up in arms. I have rarely seen an issue generate so much anger in the area!" he went on.

"This would bring hundreds of extra cars to Platt Lane and Heald Place. It would mean the loss of some trees and also intrusive floodlighting opposite peoples' homes."

"I am appalled that the Council is telling local residents that the car park will be a temporary one, just for the next two years, when in fact Council Bosses have said that it will be a permanent addition to Platt Fields Park", he concluded.

"I have asked the Council to re-consult with local residents, telling them the truth ? that this plan is for a permanent new 416-space car park."
