Town Regeneration Project
We are delighted to announce that Krol Corlett have been appointed by Wirral Council to deliver the PCSA phase of the Birkenhead Market redevelopment project.
The PCSA preliminary works will cover the design, enabling works and the ordering of long lead items to prevent delays.
KC will also provide further design development and construction advice to enable works for the new Birkenhead Market to be carried out.
“This is a cornerstone project for the ongoing transformation of Birkenhead town centre and, as a Wirral resident, I know how important the market is to Birkonians.
“We’re midway through the transformation of the market hall in Accrington and appreciate exactly what stallholders and the public want from such a key asset. Our skilled local tradespeople will ensure the very best workmanship and I’m looking forward to bringing my family along to enjoy the new market when it opens.
We are currently completing a major project at Wirral College and it is great to have another job on home turf. We’re delighted to continue to play our part in the regeneration of the borough and my thanks go to the Council for placing its trust in us.”
Further Project Scope
Wirral Council’s Economy Regeneration and Housing Committee plan to relocate traders individually, or collectively, within refurbished units of the Birkenhead Town Centre.
The intention of the project is to design a layout that maximises footfall and creates a warm and welcoming environment for the public and visitors.
This will then follow with the demolition of the existing market site and create an outdoor market/event space/public realm.
“The new market will play an important role in the future of Birkenhead town centre so we want to see a destination which builds on the very best of what we have already and creates an attractive and welcoming place to visit and shop in.”
