Preparation work is due to start on a £3m scheme to reinvigorate Plymouth city centre’s Grade II listed Civic Square which will see trees planted, seating and street furniture repaired and replaced, and work carried out to the landmark pond and flag poles.
More than £2m has been received from the Government’s Transforming Cities Fund towards enabling Plymouth City Council to develop projects to make cycling, walking and public transport a more attractive travel option.
As part of this, contractors will create new parking spaces on Princess Street and reline some of the Guildhall car park to allow the square to be expanded to create more space for cyclists and pedestrians.
