The Town of Deep River is proceeding with a ‘Town Revitalization’ project which is set to include the removal of angle parking on the store side of Champlain Street and both sides of Ridge Road in front of Giant Tiger and replacing it with parallel parking and widened sidewalks to increase foot traffic. Angle parking will remain on the town hall side of the street. Parallel parking in front of GT - one side only.
We are concerned for our customers and their continued patronage should they no longer be able to angle park directly in front of our stores and as a result, the future of our businesses.
Say NO to reduced parking. NO to parallel parking.
Save angled parking. Save our businesses. Save downtown.
I feel that the downtown core will be lost fairly quickly by reducing parking spaces. I am also worried that many of our (still licensed) seniors may not get the freedom they deserve in the town that they have supported for many years!
