As part of an ambitious multi-million-pound town centre transformational ‘Heart of Barrow’ project - plans are being proposed that would see the Forum and market hall buildings demolished.
Westmorland and Furness Council is planning to use new powers from government to get unused buildings back into productive use, bringing energy, enterprise, and footfall back to our town centres.
The first phases of a new scheme to create a dedicated space for people to safely walk, wheel and cycle along Abbey Road in Barrow are nearing completion.
