A project that has turned car parking spaces into an area for outdoor dining and socialising makes Londonderry more people-friendly, its mayor has said.
It is hoped the new seating and dining space - part of the Stormont-backed Covid Recovery Revitalisation Scheme - will increase city centre footfall."This work is a really positive way of supporting the businesses in this part of the city centre as they continue their recovery from the extremely challenging pandemic period," Ms Duffy said.When parking spaces are turned into places for people, they are known as parklets.
