Montague Street’s £1 million revamp faces delays

Town centre manager Sharon Clarke said: “I’m disappointed because of the potential delays and we have got such a short window of time where work is not going to cause disruption for traders.
“We felt the one major issue of red brick paving needed to be discussed in more detail to make sure we’re not doing something inappropriate for the town centre.”
