Council announces major upgrades to Embankment area
As part of the Budget announcement that has already set aside funding for climate change projects, green space investment and improvements to the road network, Mayor Dave Hodgson has also announced a project to enhance the Embankment area. Commenting on the proposals Mayor Dave said "The Embankment is a beautiful space that people across the Borough enjoy. During the day residents can enjoy walking along the river, past the many trees and flower displays that line the area. In the evening, the lighting that stretches the length of the Embankment makes it a unique place to visit. Over the last 2 years I'm sure we have all appreciated the importance of outdoor spaces, so I am very pleased we are investing in this area."
