An exhibition reviewing Tenby's traffic management and parking was "well received in the main," a town councillor revealed this week.
An exhibition by Pembrokeshire County Council and the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority was held in St. Johns Church Hall last week.
It was designed to promote discussion on the future of the town in terms of management of parking and traffic.
Comments were invited on matters including a review of the main traffic routes into the town; how residents, tourists and businesses are catered for in terms of parking; pedestrian friendly measures; what could be done to improve the town entre environment; and the possibility of more major developments to regenerate the town and its trade.
Mayor of Tenby, Clr. Mrs. Christine Brown, told fellow councillors on Tuesday that "overall it was a well presented review."
However, she felt that there was "an awful lot that we can add to it," and urged people to send in any comments they had on the review by the February 22 closing date.
Clr. Mickey Folland said that he had visited the exhibition every day to gauge the public reaction.
"It appeared to be very well received in the main," he commented.
Clr. Andrew Rees said it had been "refreshing to see how little had changed."
"It seems to do the job as far as I am concerned," he opined.
However, he felt that greater parking incentives were needed for people working within the town, but living outside it.
"We all know that at 8 am there is plenty of parking space in Tenby's streets, but come 9 am it's all taken by people who have driven in to work in the town," he said.
"What is needed is more encouragement for them to use the car parks.
"I know the streets are free to park on, but your car is 99 per cent safe in a manned car park, far more than on the street.
"The upper floors of the multi-storey car park are free in the winter. Something to think about would be extending this in the summer to bona fide people working in the town," he said.
