A COUNCIL is attempting to solve a town’s parking problem.

Seaford Town Council will open Martello’s Field in the town as additional parking space during busy summer weekends in 2020.

This followed feedback that there was difficulty finding space due to the packed out promenade and lack of existing car park last summer.

The council says the field will be available to hire for charity and community groups from May 2020.

The groups are then able to take donations from those using the extra parking space for the day and temporary signs will be available to promote the new car park.
