Buskers and street performers have been ordered to sign up to a new code of conduct to avoid noise and nuisance.
Trafford council has introduced the code following a consultation last year, in an attempt to ‘ensure a balance between the needs of musicians, residents and businesses’ in Altrincham town centre.
The standards are already in operation and include instructions for acts to perform at a reasonable volume, not cause obstruction, and never to use amplified sound, drums or street furniture.
