Councillors have given the green light to multi-million plans to transform Spindles Shopping Centre and create a new market and food court.
A meeting of Oldham's planning committee on Wednesday night saw members vote on proposals to redevelop the building, which the council purchased in 2020 for £9.5m.
The plans lodged by the local authority will see Tommyfield market relocated, offices created in the upper floors for council staff, as well as an events venue, heritage space, and food court.
Chris Sinton, the agent for the application, said: “These comprehensive regeneration proposals, which reinvigorate existing buildings and re-use previously developed land in a highly accessible location will secure a number of social, environmental and economic benefits, both during construction and operation. “Spindles Town Square has been at the heart of the community for 40 years and these proposals will ensure it remains there for many generations to come.” READ MORE: Strangeways bosses explain reason for lockdown at prison as inmates confined to cells all week He said the development would create new jobs, and bring footfall back into the town centre.
