RESIDENTS who have parking permits for a Weymouth road will be unable to park there while works are being carried out.

Work is being carried out on Park Street from October 22 until October 29 and residents with permits will not be able to park there for the duration.

Instead, while gas distribution company SGN completes the work, residents can park in the Melcombe Regis car park, which is open 24 hours a day.

A spokesman for Travel Dorset said: "SGN are working in Park Street, Weymouth, from October 22 until October 29.

"Residents with parking permits for this area can use the Melcombe Regis car park during these works if there are no other spaces available."
