Birkenhead Market will be moving into a former Argos despite fears it will lead to the end of the market for good.
At a March 27 regeneration committee meeting, councillors from Wirral’s Labour and Conservative parties voted to approve the relocation into the Argos unit following an £8m renovation with an expected date of February 2026.
At the meeting, traders asked why councillors had not been given a leaked report before they made a decision on the market and criticised the lack of space proposed in the new Argos building. Market traders currently use around 17,000 square feet in the current market but said just over 2,000 would be provided for traders raising fears many will be evicted.
Birkenhead councillor Ewan Tomeny said: "I don't see how we could proceed in good conscience. Our brief as far as I see it is to bring about successful regeneration and not to spend money on fundamentally unpopular and second rate options."
