Under the new plans the space will be transformed from an under-used and under-valued area into a major public urban square of the highest quality that will set the design benchmark for further regeneration in the town.
The project involves extending the current square to include two of the surrounding roads which have largely been pedestrianised. This has the effect of increasing the accessible area of the square from 4,800 to 9,900 square metres and will provide a high quality, flexible space which can be used for a wide variety of activities ranging from large scale public events such as Luton’s annual carnival celebration to more intimate activities such as sitting and socialising in a safe and comfortable environment.
