The new parking arrangements at Kiama Village have come into force today, and judging by what we saw this morning it might take some time for people to get used to them [Woolworths starts redevelopment preparations].

It is no longer possible to access the Village via the Thomson St roundabout, with access during this first stage of the development now from further up Terralong St.

There are now only 60 carparks available for shoppers (with the disabled parking in the process of being implemented), and a one way system that many seemed to find confusing at first go.

Access to the back carpark is now cordoned off

The redevelopment is expected to be completed by December.
