Final phase of the Rock announced

 

Hamersons have announced the final stage of the Rock development which is really good news. The scheme will include a number of restaurants and illustrates the success of the new shopping centre. BDP's masterplan for the development included a strong diagonal route to create a clear pedestrian link back into the town centre. URBED worked with the council on a number of studies to explore how this crucial part of the scheme could work - so that the Rock would enhance the whole centre rather than diverting its trade. The development announced is the link between the new scheme and the main part of the centre and so is the last bit of the jigsaw.
