Stallholders who relocated to the Mill Gate shopping centre will have 'unsustainable' financial assistance stopped by the council next spring

Financial support for some market traders forced to relocate after Bury’s indoor market suddenly closed is set to be axed. In October, 2023 the market was closed without delay due to the discovery of Reinforced Aerated Autoclaved Concrete in the roof structure which posed a safety risk.

Now the council is set to stop that support from March, 2025 having already spent more than £268,000 to subsidise traders. A report to to the council’s cabinet, who are set to decide on stopping the funding, said: “The level of support is unsustainable and is creating increased budget pressures on Bury Council.

The council added that the financial support also ‘creates inequity for Mill Gate retailers’. The report states that the total cost of the emergency response to the closure of the indoor market hall is more than £950,000. “Eight traders opted to operate in the open market and on pop-up stalls and seven traders were relocated to council owned property on Princess Parade. “These have now vacated to the open market or Mill Gate units ahead of the flexi-hall construction.
