Market Hall Demolition Planning Application
Decided
The way that
Bromsgrove’s Market Hall will be demolished has been decided by the
District Council’s Planning Committee.
A prior notification was submitted to the
planning committee yesterday, detailing method of demolition for
the Market Hall.
Leader of Bromsgrove District Council Cllr
Roger Hollingworth said: “The submission to the planning committee
further shows our upfront and transparent approach about the future
of the market hall site”
The demolition of the market hall will take
place in April and is part of the regeneration programme that has
already successfully begun redeveloping and revitalising areas of
the town centre.
In the previous Town Centre Area Action Plan
Issues and Options public consultation held in 2008, 83% of the
public rated the range of shops to be poor or very poor.
Cllr Hollingworth stated: “It is important we
continue to redevelop the retail offer right through the High
Street, from Birmingham Road to Worcester Road and this will give
us a prime development site at the south end of the Town
Centre”.
