These proposals seek to dramatically enhance the public realm whilst maintaining existing uses for car parking and market stalls.
The key structural features are:
- A rain garden planted strip to replace the broken concrete paving adjacent to parking bays
- Rationalised parking bays to make better use of available space, improved vehicle manoeuvring space and provision of a loading bay for deliveries
- Enhanced pedestrian flows and increased pavement space
- Additional cycle racks
- Welcoming and coherent entrances to the space from east, west
and north - Maintained and enhanced market stall space
- Creation of flexible spaces for temporary uses
- Retention of all trees with improved root zone space
- Provision of well-located high quality seating
- Improved accessibility for mobility and visually impaired
