The provided map below demonstrates the existing and proposed layouts of a local area, highlighting the modifications and developments planned for the future years.
Overall, it is evident that the redesign will bring about substantial transformation, primarily through the relocation of the car parking facilities, library, council offices, exhibition space, and town hall. Additionally, new amenities, including a café, hotel, and restaurant, are set to be introduced, thereby modernising the locality and enhancing its functionality.
Currently, there are two surface-level car parks adjacent to the cinema on North Avenue. In the future plan, these will be removed and relocated underground, beneath the town hall along Victoria Avenue to the south. The vacated plots will be repurposed, with a café occupying the western site, while a hotel and a restaurant will be constructed on the eastern side. Notably, the cinema itself will remain unaffected.
Meanwhile, the shopping centre situated at the south-east corner, next to Smith Street, will be retained in its current form. By contrast, the library will no longer be positioned at its existing site; instead, it will be relocated underground, strategically placed between the town hall and the r council offices, which are planned to shift furthe adjacent to High Street.
