Calls have been made for barriers blocking vehicle parking in Aldeburgh town centre to be removed once lockdown is eased - amid claims they are harming businesses.
Barriers were installed in the resort s High Street last summer as a safeguarding measure to allow for social distancing and reduce the risk of spreading coronavirus.

The structures have widened the footpath, but have reduced the number of parking spaces available outside stores.
Aldeburgh community leaders insist the measures are temporary, help ensure the safety of pedestrians and said it was still too early to call for them to be removed due to the current lockdown measures.
