Peel regeneration to focus on parking and pedestrians

Monday, 23 June 2014 00:00

Plans to revamp Peel's Market Square will mean better parking - and an opportunity to show off St Peter's Church and other existing assets.

The regeneration scheme aims to build on the current landmarks and make the area more pedestrian friendly.

Peel Regeneration Committee is overseeing the project - the plans are on display in the Commissioners' Office for anyone who wishes to see them in depth.

Steven Stanley is the regeneration manager - he told us more about how the area could change if approved:
