scheme info:
The Pedestrian Heart project is now complete and has not only provided a fresh appearance, with open spaces for comfortable shopping and unique public art attractions; but has also created other benefits and opportunities for the town centre. The town centre is now in a position to host a wide variety of street entertainment and larger events. The circular performance space ‘Joseph Pease Place’ in particular, is the ideal central venue for a programme of street theatre and entertainment. The open space created by the scheme has enabled more food and drink businesses to provide a pavement café facility. This adds to a more relaxed feel in the town centre and allows shoppers and visitors the chance to enjoy the better weather.
