QUOTE (Bartholomew @ Oct 11 2012, 05:01 PM)  I think that it was quite a bit later than that. I think it was 2005 or 2006. The plaque in the marketplace outside the Corn Exchange will probably give a clue about when it was officially opened and the restrictions placed on the market place and Northbrook Street. Look at 1998 on this link |

QUOTE (NWNREADER @ Oct 11 2012, 08:48 PM) Look at 1998 on this link Yes it was 1998 that Northbrook Street was "pedestrianised". It was the resurfacing that came later on that I was thinking of. Now I think about it I do remember that there was a pedestrian crossing with lights put just outside Cap Hopson immediately before the traffic restrictions were put in place! Always seemed like poor planning to me. |
