Designs revealed for major redevelopment of Lowestoft's seafront
The improvements will see the installation of new fountains at Royal Plain
The final designs for a major revelopment on Lowestoft's seafront have been revealed.
The improvements will see the installation of new fountains at Royal Plain, as well as revamped green spaces and leisure facilities.
The Royal Green and South Quay Wharf areas are also set for a refresh.
An event is now planned at the East Point Pavilion on Thursday (July 6) to show the plans off to the public.
The project is due for completion next May, and will compliment changes to the East Point Pavilion as well as the new beach huts along the seafront.
The redevelopment work has been enabled by an almost £25m grant from the government's Towns Fund.
Toby Hammond, am East Suffolk Council cabinet member responsible for Economic Development and Transport said:
“This exciting project is just part of a suite of major regeneration works planned for Lowestoft, which aim to enhance the area for residents and attract visitors."
"There is huge redevelopment already underway, from major regeneration in the town centre including the repurposing of the former Post Office and vacant station building, redevelopment of the Council’s current Customer Services Centre and the Battery Green car park, through to the Gull Wing bridge and the installation of the permanent flood defences.
“The improvements at Royal Plain, as well as the planned redevelopment at Jubilee Parade, will create a seafront for local communities to be proud of, and encourage even more visitors to come and enjoy the area.”
