Manchester Parking Plan Reverses State Agreement

A Tuesday meeting with state Highway officials and Manchester selectmen produced two key parking decisions. Main Street on the east will keep diagonal parking and the west parallel spots will stay. the no parking ban by Horton's Hardware on Route 11-30 remains. The state will permit 30 minute meters for four west side spots and a crosswalk near the hardware store, pending final approval. Hazard called the results satisfactory, noting the state showed cooperation and a partial concession. Coombs, owner of the hardware store, expressed disappointment and hinted at appealing to a state traffic committee. Hazard added that a center left turn lane must start below the hardware store to maintain flow, limiting parking space. The town previously sought to reverse the plan to allow east side parking but officials argued it would crook the road. The meeting also touched on Mill Pond dredging and lighting plans, with officials saying work would begin once conditions allow.
