Road Closure
Please note that due to ongoing Bury Council roadworks, there is currently no through vehicle access on Market Street; however, access to the Trinity Street car park is available from Angouleme Way. There is no parking available around our Millennium Centre, which is accessible via Wellington Street. This may cause some traffic disruption on the evening of the event, so please plan your journey in advance.
Pedestrian access along Market Street remains open throughout the works, although temporary pavement closures or crossings have been introduced. Being close to the Metrolink and Bus Station, we would encourage the use of public transport on the evening of the event.
