Images show how Ashton market square could be transformed with £10m redevelopment

New images have been revealed showing how Ashton market square could be transformed under £10m plans for a new ‘canopy structure’ to replace the existing outside stalls plagued by anti-social behaviour.
Following a four week public consultation, Tameside council has released detailed plans of how the public space in the centre of Ashton-under-Lyne could be redeveloped. Under the proposals, the current fixed stalls and kiosks would be removed and replaced with a ‘large canopy’ which would allow ‘flexible units’ for traders and elsewhere in the square, and would see a canopy attached to the market hall.
The current outdoor market which has 104 fixed market stalls and eight kiosks, was the product of a £4.5m investment by the council which was completed in 2015. However a report to executive cabinet states that trader numbers have now declined to an average weekly occupancy of just 25 pc.

The square has also been hit by antisocial behaviour incidents, which negatively affect the way residents view the outside market area – which led to a public space protection order being put in place by the council and Greater Manchester Police in October to prohibit certain activities linked to anti-social behaviour.
“Complaints related to intoxicated individuals consuming alcohol and other substances and causing a nuisance,” the cabinet report adds.
“Vacant market stalls provide weather protection and cover for these individuals making the area less
