Sir - I am delighted to read in your Worcester News that action is finally going to be taken to ease parking congestion around county hall by creating 200 new parking spaces.

I know Labour are trying to claim some sort of victory here, but it should be well known that this outcome is due to the tireless efforts of Keith Burton and his team on the local residents association. I praise the conservative-led administration at county hall for listening to the concerns of local residents and taking action.

As the city council candidate for Nunnery ward, this was one of election pledges so I am pleased to have something ticked off before I have even started! However I do plan to keep a close eye on the situation once the work is complete to ensure that it has the positive effect desired.

Unlike the current Labour trio who think they have “safe seats”, I believe in working hard for local people. If any residents in Nunnery wish to come to me with concerns on parking, or indeed anything else, please call 01905 319 782 or email me at alan@alanfeeney.co.uk.
