️ Leader of Wigan Council, Councillor David Molyneux MBE, has responded to news that our bid for £11.3m of levelling-up funding for Leigh town centre has been successful...

New Lobby Pons all round

Leigh is set to get a new market hall and a completely rejuvenated high street. Improvements are planned across the historic heart of Leigh town centre in Wigan, creating flexible and active spaces to promote cultural and community events and better connections across the town.

Plans also include work on Leigh Civic Square and the regeneration of high street shop fronts on the main high street (Bradshawgate) in addition to the Leigh Market overhaul.

Developments submitted by Wigan Council would see the town’s Civic Square spruced up with walkways, nature trails and social hubs. It comes after Leigh was handed a £11.4 million share of the Levelling Up Fund will help boost several improvements across the historic heart of the town centre.
