In the first phase, the Council is proposing to move the outdoor market from its existing location to Portland Square, using demountable stalls which will be removed on non-market days.

This will allow for the existing outdoor market site to be transformed into a short stay car park, providing the opportunity for the car park on New Street to be amended allowing for long-stay parking within the town centre.
