Plans to regenerate a popular waterfront area and 'well used' park is exactly what an East Midlands town needs, residents say. The plans for Long Eaton's West Park, and along the Erewash Canal, form part of an award of £24.8m from the Government for the town's Investment Plan
The project is one of seven projects within the town's transformation, with the plans are currently under consideration. The waterfront development would include a seating area to enjoy the park, as well as facilities for refreshments and to launch small watercraft.
The events space will allow for a wider variety of events along with more car parking spaces. Park goers in the town say the plans for the ‘well used’ West Park are needed and will ‘brighten’ the space up.
