The Lime Street redevelopment scheme is edging closer towards completion, with new pictures showing progress being made with installed paving around St George’s Hall.
The scheme has been significantly delayed after its original contractor, NMCN, went into administration last October with the project a long way from completion. The contractor’s collapse meant the city’s key gateway has been reduced to a building site for the best part of a year.
However there have been a number of positive developments in recent months with new segregated bike lanes installed along key parts of the scheme. Contractors are now taking the final steps to add improved paving around St George’s Plateau. The city council also hopes to advertise the tender for resurfacing of the scheme in the coming weeks, something a council spokesperson regards as "the final piece of the jigsaw"
