Plans for a major overhaul of George Street which will see hundreds of parking spaces ripped out and pedestrians given priority is moving forward - despite concerns over funding, the impact on businesses and a lack of trees in the designs.
Work to pedestrianise the city centre thoroughfare is set to begin in 2024 and take three years.
An operational plan detailing how the construction will take place is not yet agreed however. Councillors voted to proceed with the latest designs which show the street reimagined with widened pavements, cycle lanes and planters.
