the question of legality will be brushed aside . the flashing yellow lights outside the school have a sign under them saying "funded by the castleton on street parking scheme"
DCC'll say that the new P&D bays will be used to find safety schemes and so its justified
the 3 bays next to the bus station on the opposite side of the road from the perivil stores are going to be 30 mins waiting. so that's the "people want to pop in for a newspaper" problem "sorted".
at least one of the dropped kerbs that are described as "wheelchair access" is actually to solve the problem of there being a manhole crossing the kerb. the others will likely be marked and the bays arranged so they're not blocked
there is a gap in the bays outside the peak hotel which will "allow cars from hope to pull in to allow cars from castleton to pass"
the bloke with a garage next to the stores will find that there are no bays in front of his garage and in fact the double yellows will prevent parking in front of it.
I'd guess that the meters will be on the pavement on the same side as the bus turning circle. the bays outside the church will also probably have meters on the pavement side of the road. so narrow pavements won't be blocked.
The council will probably view the opinions of the villagers as just "scared of change"
the on road parking out past the Peak cavern carpark towards odin will become 4 hours max. at the moment MTB and walkers can stay there all day, this will stop them doing that. i suspect that it may well get changed back to all day . especially as part of a "compromise" from DCC
