New Retail Quarter a step nearer

The new retail quarter for Hereford is a step nearer after the Herefordshire Council Cabinet this afternoon agreed that negotiations between ESG Herefordshire, developers Stanhope PLC and itself could be finalised.

The first phase of the project is expected to start in 2011. The aim is to bring 'a range of substantial economic and social benefits for the county.'

Based on the livestock market site, which is opposite Hereford United's Edgar Street ground, the plans include a new multi-screen cinema, new restaurants, department stores, car parking and high quality pedestrianised streets with connections to the city’s High Town and Maylord Centre.
