The council provided an update on the progress to expect this year
Despite levelling up funding setbacks, the city council has moved to reassure people of Nottingham progress will continue on some of the biggest developments transforming the southside of the city centre. Earlier this month, the city council again missed out on levelling up funding, with £20m hoped to have gone on the wider Broad Marsh transformation.
Work is to start on the Broad Marsh Green Heart this year; a project which will see an area "the size of the City Ground football pitch" turned into a green urban park, bringing nature into the heart of the city centre and installing, potentially, the longest bench in Europe.Work to start on Broad Marsh Green Heart The Broad Marsh site itself will see work start on the Green Heart element of the scheme later this year.
Family-friendly public space and unique area for skateboarding Linking to this are the streets immediately south of the shopping centre site. Work funded from a successful bid to the government’s Transforming Cities fund will begin later this year turning Collin Street – previously a busy five-lane road through the city – into a pleasant family-friendly space with planting, seating and playable areas overlooked by the new library.
Work is continuing to extend the segregated cycle lane and improved pedestrian access through the Broadmarsh area along Canal Street and London Road, linking to the Island Quarter in the east and Castle Boulevard in the west.
