Leigh has been awarded over £32 million to transform its town centre making it more a more attractive, vibrant and accessible place.
Over £12m will be invested over the next two years through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and Levelling Up Fund.
These projects will focus on revitalising Civic Square as a safer, more attractive community space. Improvements will also be made to public areas and to connections between Market Street and King Street.
A building grant scheme is also underway to improve shop fronts across the town centre, with refurbishment works at Leigh Market planned for 2027.
A further £20m will follow over the next decade through the Pride in Place fund. The independently chaired Neighbourhood Board will decide how this money is invested, aiming to make the town feel safe and welcoming.
