Chance to comment on the Grimsby Town Centre masterplan

North East Lincolnshire Council would appreciate your feedback on the Grimsby Town Centre masterplan. Please ask your networks to comment too.

A request from North East Lincolnshire Council for your comments and feedback.

In 2020, a Masterplan was designed for Grimsby Town Centre, the result of a wide range of engage- ment activities with businesses, residents, and visit- ors.

Since then, projects such as the improvements to the green space in St James Square have been com- pleted, and funding has been secured to deliver large scale projects which will start the transforma- tion of Grimsby Town Centre. These projects in- clude.

Changing Freshney Place into a mixed retail and leisure space with parkway cinemas to provide a 5- screen cinema, additional leisure activities, retail space, a new market hall, and food/beverage op- tions.

Refurbishment of Central Library, bringing the upper floors back into use.

Creation of a new, green, public space at Riverhead Square.

Improving cycle/pedestrian routes in the town centre.

A new housing complex, providing high quality, en- ergy efficient, town centre housing.

As well as this, we are seeing private investments in developments such as the Onside Youth Zone, and

Grimsby Projekt (a learning/leisure container in- stallation) being brought into the town.

In addition, the town centre has seen exciting events such as Festival of the Sea and art installa- tions including The Moon at the Minster.

Between now and 2025, you will start to see radical changes happening in the town centre, but for Grimsby to continue to prosper, we need to start thinking about the ‘what next’.

We want to hear how these changes will benefit you, what you think will make it even better, and how we can continue to keep you informed.
