THE FIRST real sign of demolition in the town centre started with a bang yesterday, as the Kendray Street bridge was brought down.
The concrete structure, stretching between the old council Central Offices and the former TEC building, was 'chewed' to pieces as part of the council's £50m plan to regenerate the town centre.
The multi storey car park will follow around February time. The Better Barnsley demolition work also includes the market offices and the TEC building.
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."
