Sinn Féin councillor for the Moor Aisling Hutton welcomed news that the Department for Infrastructure intends to introduce a ‘no-waiting zone’ where the Lecky Road begins at Joseph Place.
She said it should remove ongoing issues with cars and tourist coaches blocking the path of oncoming motorists at one of Derrys busiest junctions.

"This was causing significant risk to motorists turning into the carriageway from the junction in front of the H-Block monument and creating the potential for collisions and perhaps worse.
"I would ask commuters to observe the restrictions which should considerably improve road safety in the area,” she said.
