Regent Street Improvements

Following on from Bowes Street, Church Street, and Wanley Street improvements the next stage will see improvements to Regent Street to enable further connectivity and improve the towns aesthetic.

This is the final stage of town centre improvements following the extensive works carried out on Bowes Street, Church Street and Wanley Street.

All improvements intend to create a more attractive and welcoming entrance to the town as well as increase connectivity for business, residents and visitors.

This phase will connect Bebside to Town Centre Cycling and Walking Corridor, linking the new station with the town centre.

Key features of this project include:

  • Improving footpaths and cycle ways along Regent Street to link with cycleways along Bridge Street, Bowes Street and the Market Place.
  • Introducing a cycleway and an improved entrance into the town from the North adjacent to Morrisons.
  • Improving footpaths, cycleways, public realm, lighting, connectivity and digital signage from Keel Row car park along Simpson Street and Seaforth Street
  • New footpaths, cycleways, lighting, connectivity and digital signage along the periphery of Morrisons car park to the North and South.
