Blackburn's regeneration boom and all the amazing projects coming to the town
In July, it was announced that Blackburn had bid for £40m worth of 'Levelling-up' funding and announced its plans on where this money would be spent. The first £20m would be used to accelerate the town's development plan and £60m would be used to unlock plans for a brand new skills and education campus.
It is hoped that the building, which dates back to the 1800s, will be fully restored in order to create two new restaurant spaces. This is part of the wider £3m Townscape Heritage Project - in partnership with the Council and the National Lottery Heritage Fund. As LancsLive reported in July, the Campus will be at the heart of its proposed Blackburn Business Innovation District - estimated to contribute £1bn of new economic activity over the next 10 years. Councillor Riley added: “Our vision for that 15 acre site includes a new Business Improvement District, the potential to relocate Morrisons to a new, modern store and the development of low carbon, quality town centre living on the existing supermarket site.
