Pedestrianisation of Market Square should be resisted, both figures 11 and 12 would not result in a vibrant town centre. Problems experienced, have accured since changes to the square in the late nineties. Traffic entering and exiting the square should be reversed.
There is already 4 cafes in and around the square. We have already lost 2 pubs. Widening the pavements will only make it more difficult on market day independent shops rely on short stay parking pop-in and pop-out customers. Three taxi spaces should be relocated.
