Or is it that Hyndburn BC have run out of cash AGAIN????

Re: Town Centre
It sounds like you are referring to Broadway (in front of Woollies and M&S?) in which case a few plans have been put forward none of which are particularly thrilling but basically HBC seem to want a couple of flower tubs and a few benches and space left for the French market whenever it comes. We've had discussions about it from time to time in here. If you do a search for "Broadway" you might be able to find some of them.

Re: Town Centre
According to the leaflets we recieved at work about 2 months ago, they are renovating it this summer and putting the flower beds back. Should be fun trying to work with all the noise etc.:rolleyes:

It can't be any worse than the fairground surely? We really missed a treat there didn't we?

Re: Town Centre
I saw a grand total of 2 people on the stupid rides and that was on a Saturday afternoon. Am sooooo glad that stupid fair is gone. I can only hope that they are putting back the flowerbeds etc just so that I won't have to work with that crap on Broadway again!

Re: Town Centre
i think we should have a rollercoaster on broadway , a log flume in the river stink and a circus on the arndale carpark roof
hey it may sound stupid but its a more likely choice HBC would make lol |

Re: Town Centre
To my way of thinking it was a waste to rip out benches and flower beds only to replace them with the same. But then we should be used to waste by now.

Re: Town Centre
They removed the flower beds and benches so that the outdoor market could be housed there temporarily whilst they demolished the old area and constructed the new one.

Re: Town Centre
Were they not going to mobile flower beds so that they could be removed when the market and what not comes?

Re: Town Centre
I think HBC will leave it as it is, one big open and ugly looking stretch. It wasnt that long ago that HBC was thinking off selling off the indoor market cause it was so cash strapped. Pity really, if they cant afford to replace the flower beds they could at least put back the benches. Half of the ones (think its about 2 aint it ???) have slats missing from them.
