Wigan town centre is due to be 'transformed' as demolition work starts on multi-million pound redevelopment. The Galleries Shopping Centre started to be torn down in July and council are hoping to open the redevelopment in 2024.
The market stalls will get their new home inside the facility when it goes up but concerned locals want to ensure it does not falter before then. That is why PlaceCo have been appointed to look over the transition period.
Working in partnership with the Council, the market management, animation and activation specialists, they will liaise with current and future traders to help with the move to the town’s new Market Hall that will include markets, retail, food and leisure.
