From Rodney Ison.

THE proposal to demolish Minden Place car park must qualify as the worst suggestion the Island has seen for many years.

That is saying a lot, with some of the decisions made in recent years. Should the demolition take place it will be the end of St Helier for shopping and I would suggest that owners of shops and market stalls start looking now for other employment.

Whoever had this brainwave obviously does not shop in town and have to carry their purchases any distance to their transport. Parking in Town is difficulty enough and with the loss of Minden Place it will result in St Helier becoming a ghost town.

This car park works well and is used by many thousands of shoppers each week. I think the saying ‘If it is not broken, don’t fix it’ applies here.
