St Helens Town Centre Revival: A New Era

St Helens Town Centres Major Revamp: A New Hotel, Market Hall, Homes, Shops, and More on the Way - This podcast episode discusses the significant regeneration project in St Helens town centre, featuring a new hotel, market hall, sixty-five homes, fresh shops, an extended bus station linked to the railway, and improved public spaces. The project aims to revitalize the area, which has been affected by rising costs and declining footfall. Local shop managers and residents share their concerns about high business rates, energy bills, rent, and the shift towards supermarkets with free parking. The council sees this as a unique opportunity to create a family-friendly, thriving environment, addressing issues like pothole-riddled roads and special education plans.
