spilldig Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Bring it on. The more retail outlets the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewC Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I was in queuing traffic at the Meadowhead roundabout last week. Crawled up to Hunstone Avenue and then didn't move an inch for 10 mins. I look forward to this roundabout getting even worse if/when a retail park is built next door. Private developments are one of the best chances of getting any investment in the local infrastructure, so make sure you let them know all your concerns. The council planners almost always ask for investment for such things as one of the planning considerations, and often get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzamattazza Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share Posted December 2, 2015 Another Meadowhell? Doubt it will be on such a grand scale, don't think it would be much bigger than down at Meersbrook, where Matalan is, but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon26 Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I would like it to be something which enhances the area and complements what is there already. Maybe a garden centre and and a m&s food hall... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damageandy Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I would like it to be something which enhances the area and complements what is there already. Maybe a Sports Direct and a Mcd's... FTFY. If its only going to be a small retail site similar to the one on Chesterfield Road it wont have much of an impact on the traffic in the area. Norton college and leisure centre used to generate a fair amount of traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norton college and leisure centre used to generate a fair amount of traffic. Leisure centre still there still generating a lot of traffic. Doubt any fast food will be there as the school managed to stop a macdonalds being built where JCT6000 ( gilders) is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassett one Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 if they can put in a sensible traffic idea fantastic ,we badly need a argos as the one n town is terrible to get to,and a supermarket and a few shops would help us on the south side of the city,but they will have to sort out the traffic.

Chavtyke Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Good ... attract some decent shops though instead of these daft "mini retail parks" that are now the norm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verydull Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I heard Ikea was going there. Or was it a costa, pound shop, gregs and Starbucks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
