Town Breaks Ground on Improvements to St. James Lot Access

The Town of Manchester has begun the construction of the new stairwell at the corner of Park and Main.  This is phase one of a project announced in the summer of 2021 that will improve the connection between our parking lots and our downtown businesses.

This new connection to the St. James Lot will provide a direct line-of-site, promoting the use of this parking lot. This is a convenient location to park when accessing businesses on the west side of Main Street where on-street parking is limited.

The St. James lot provides FREE all-day parking, no permit required. However, this lot is occasionally closed due to church events.
