Nottingham City Council has unveiled wide-ranging plans to transform the Broadmarsh area in the city centre.
The proposals should boost the local economy by over £1billion a year, create nearly 3,000 jobs and attract an extra three million visitors a year.
The plans, alongside intu’s proposed redevelopment of Broadmarsh, Nottingham Castle’s redevelopment and the Skills Hub scheme, will transform the southern end of the city centre into a top-class destination for retail, leisure and education. Collectively, they represent a £250m investment in the city.
