Poll: Do you think Hamilton needs more all-day parking?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton councillors have agreed to an extra 85 all day paid parking spaces in the central city.

The vast majority of the 365 metres of extra space will be in Seddon Rd with just 40 metres in Ward St after a vote by the traffic, speed limit and road closure hearings panel.

Do you think Hamilton needs more all-day parking? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
