Market support

The market layout provides a flexible multiuse space. We are progressing with plans to re-open the arch and create a new walking route between Queen Mary University of London and the town centre via Meath Gardens - this will be subject to the a separate consultation soon.

These plans along with recruiting new traders will help improve footfall and help activate the square.

The pitches are clustered with stalls back to back, allowing space between stalls and shops. The market stalls are organised around new six lamp posts for service connection - electric connections and meters are proposed. Utilities bills for lamp columns and power will be paid for by Highways/Market Services.
