Chester Gateway

Ambitious regeneration plans aimed at transforming the area around Chester Railway Station to make it a 'destination for business, living and tourism' have been unveiled.

Among the proposals for 'The Gateway' are new homes, a multi-storey car park for the station, a high-quality pedestrian and cycle bridge next to the existing Hoole Bridge, public art and play spaces, and a tree-lined boulevard, rain garden and parklets on City Road.
