Market Place Regeneration

Below is the approved preliminary design for the Market Place regeneration project.

These works aim to address some existing issues with the current Market Place, such as drainage, re-allocate parking spaces to modern standards and provide wider outside seating for businesses operating within the market to encourage café culture for the future.

Works include:

Resurfacing and re-lining of the car park
Widening of the northern footway
Repairs and replacement of public realm elements such as benches and bollards
The provision of Electric Vehicle ducting for future EV charge points
New bollards to open and close the marketplace to public vehicles
A reconfiguring of the car park layout to maximise spaces under modern regulations
