Chester: Council Agrees To Widen Part Of Water Street


Chester council has given the green light to make a part of Water Street a little wider. Warden Allen Webber says there's a long-standing issue of parking and because it's so narrow, it could be a one-way street. Council has agreed to remove some rose bushes and curb opposite to the Rope Loft. Webber says it may be a temporary solution.


He says they will request additional parking signs from the Department of Transportation to be put up once the work is complete. The cost to remove the bushes and curb and add some gravel is approximately $1,000.
