RESURFACING of the ramps at the market multi-storey car park will take place this week, even though the car park may soon be demolished.
Leader of the council Sir Steve Houghton said a decision had yet to be made on whether to keep the car park when the market is refurbished, but said even if it were to be demolished, it will still be needed for the next '18-months or two years' so essential maintenance cannot be ignored.
The ramps, which are often used by vehicles as a shortcut through town, will be closed during working hours, 6pm to 5am, for one week beginning on Monday.
The car park will be open as normal during the day.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
