BobyBrno Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Went in town this afternoon. Lots of work going on behind the Town Hall and the old bus station site. The development of the site of the old Odeon and work on the market will transform that part of town. Small steps but it’s a start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a Bolton fan who hadn't returned home yet. Or one of Tommeh's mates arrived early for the Luton game tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevieb Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Went in today at about 3pm. If you think Bolton can't look more desolate go on a Sunday at closing up time! Even the undesirables had fucked off back to their HMOs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose these 200 homes will add another 500 plus to the town centre population which is good for the shops but the town centre is really struggling even compared to some other rough northern towns. Blackpool has still got its Marks and Spencers in town and the laughing stock of 10 years ago Rochdale now has an M and S Foodhall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve said previously that there are some ambitious plans that just need investment. Investors need confidence and hopefully, the small steps currently being taken, could give them that confidence. I remain optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see that changing any time soon. Traditional Boltonians have scant regard for council elections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traditional Boltonians have scant regard for council elections. Recent changes could affect things as Labour are now the largest party but without overall control. I know councillors of 3 of the main parties so I’m hopeful they’ll pursue the same ambitions of the previous regime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
