Market Place - Scheme Proposals
As the Civic Square breathes a new lease of life into the heart of the town centre, offering a flexible and attractive space for cultural and community events, there are plans to complement the space on the adjacent road, Market Place - between the junctions of Lord Street and Church Street.
These proposals will complement the Square - making the area cleaner, greener, safer, and create a comfortable space to spend time.
The scheme puts the ‘Place’ back into ‘Market Place’ – by reducing the current ‘split’ caused by the major road corridor.
The aim is to enhance the area with new and improved crossings and facilities, building on the evolving ‘Civic’ quarter as a new destination for Leythers to take pride in.
