Going by by what was spent on refurbishing Broadway as a guide, I put the figure for this name change at half a million pounds.

I have been told that the 'welcome to' signs are replaced regularly and are due to be replaced this year anyway,if the name wasn't being changed there would still have been new signs made bearing the old name so there will not be extra cost.
