A DEMONSTRATION in protest of proposed parking charges will take place in Northwich this Saturday.

The demonstration will take place at the bottom end of Northwich High Street near bull ring at 11am.

Cllr Gaynor Sinar, Cheshire West and Chester Council ward member for Davenham and Moulton, and chairman of Northwich BID, is leading the protest.

Members of the public are invited to join the protest.

For the past several weeks, Cllr Sinar has been collection individual forms from members of the public, detailing their opposition.

Gaynor said: “I’m going to get the word out. If people can come great, if they can’t they can’t. We’re not expecting people to go out of their way for it.

“If people want to make a stand then we can show that.

“We have had thousands of signed cards so we don’t need to do the demonstrations as such, but it is just to show the presence of discontent around this issue.”

The issue will be discussed in public by the council’s scrutiny committee on September 14.
