  MANCHESTER – Manchester Township officials approved changes to the township’s parking ordinance at a recent council meeting, which prohibits parking at any time on various roadways.

  According to the ordinance, the parking regulations are meant to ensure “the health, safety, and welfare of residents of the Township, and specifically to promote neighborhood aesthetics and the safer flow of vehicles onto roadways and across sidewalks, curbs and road shoulders.”
