2023 is going to be a big year for Blackpool in terms of regeneration. Plans for the £300m Blackpool Central project are now under way, but these have come at the cost of the temporary closure of Central car park and the permanent closure of Bonny Street Market.
A 1,306 space multi-storey car park is due to open in August as part of the enabling phase of the £300m leisure scheme. Following on from this, Blackpool can expect to see a new Heritage Quarter, set to be built by spring 2024 , which contains the food hall and the aparthotel.At the start of a brand new year, the market looks unrecognisable. All that's left of the stalls are bits of metal and odd panels of plywood.
Tarpaulin and insulation can be seen flapping about in the wind as the demolition works are carried out. Further phases of the development will not be operational until spring or summer 2025, and the full development expected to take 10 years to complete. The £300m scheme will be the largest single investment in Blackpool for over a century and is expected to create around 1,000 new jobs, bring an estimated 600,000 additional visitors each year, and boost annual spend in the town by around £75m.
