Councillor Cooper said: “The efforts to reduce parking problems in this area have been a work in progress for a considerable period of time.
“During that time I have been working very closely with local residents, the PSNI and Transport NI to see if we could collectively come up with solutions to resolve the long running problem of parking in this area.
“New double yellow lines will be installed at the junction of Aberfoyle Crescent and Duncreggan Road to prevent cars parking at corners which has been causing major issues for local residents.
“A further request is in place for lines to be installed in other parts of the area to prevent further obstructions and I am confident that this will be legislated for in the coming weeks,” he added.
