Ashton-under-Lyne town centre regeneration

Overview

Urban regeneration efforts in Ashton-under-Lyne have progressed with the reopening of the historic Clarence Arcade. The restored Victorian building now houses 12 independent businesses and a cinema and cocktail lounge.

Further developments include the completion of a £14.6 million upgrade to Market Square. The project, which has been underway for two years, features a new canopy, 10 permanent kiosks, and a community events space. The square is scheduled for a grand opening on November 14, coinciding with the Tameside Northern Lights Winter Parade and a Christmas lights switch-on ceremony. These festivities, which include a Christmas market and live music, are part of a broader effort to revitalize the town centre and encourage local commerce.
