In the meantime, it's quiet and quiet, but for how long?
00:05
According to the council's plans,
00:07
it will be necessary to park this part of the castle
00:10
all the way along the bridge to the Gleis or Consti.
00:13
They suggest raising £3.50 for two hours
00:16
or £5 for four hours of parking,
00:19
that's from 8am to 7pm.
00:22
The plan is to park the castle
00:25
all the way along the bridge to the Gleis or Consti.
00:28
They suggest raising £3.50 for two hours
00:31
or £5 for four hours of parking,
00:34
that's from 8am to 8pm.
00:37
For those who live and work here,
00:40
Aberystwyth parking is quite expensive already.
00:44
Setting up the road and parking in Aberystwyth
00:48
would be a joke.
00:50
I'm in a meeting at the moment.
00:52
For those who work in the town, where are they going to park?
00:57
I just think it's a double-pronged attack.
01:00
One meeting, one parking,
01:02
and a final nail in the coffin in Aberystwyth.
01:05
After the council's plan,
01:07
raising the price for parking in the town
01:10
would encourage people to use more public transport,
01:14
avoid traffic accidents
01:16
and encourage the opening of local businesses.
01:19
The bridge is one of the places to park
01:22
without a price at the centre of Aber.
01:25
So what was the plan to lose?
01:28
What I'd like to say is,
01:30
if there are many places to park in Aber like this,
01:33
and to encourage people to park on the bridge
01:36
where people cross,
01:38
we'll park on the bridge,
01:40
so no, it's not a good thing for people.
01:43
I think some people will stay over
01:47
because of that.
01:49
Of course, people tend to stay in one place for a long time
01:54
if there's no need to move at all,
01:57
but that can be a problem too.
02:00
Do you think they're a good idea?
02:02
Well, no, I don't think so
02:04
because it will keep more people out of the town
02:07
and there's not a lot of parking in the town itself.
02:11
I know the council has to raise money.
02:15
I know, I understand the cost,
02:18
but at the moment, I don't think it's a good idea.
02:27
Give hope to the prom and the centre of Aber
02:30
is the bridge of the council.
02:32
For businesses, the priority is to encourage people
02:35
to lose their customers.
