Plans for the regeneration of Scarborough’s West Pier to benefit the town’s fishing industry have been unveiled.
A number of revisions have already been made across the proposed life of the project so far in response to feedback from tenants and users.This includes an increase in the number of car parking spaces proposed from 60 to 80 and working with local people to champion the pier’s heritage, including a memorial to those who have lost their lives at sea.
One of the businesses that will be directly impacted by the revitalisation of the West Pier is TG Wood, a fish merchant that has traded since 1970. It is now run by Shaun Wood, who took over from his father. He said: “It’s a fishermen’s pier and the proposals will mean it is still a fishermen’s pier but will also safeguard it for the future.
“We need to ensure there is something to pass onto the next generation and by diversifying and offering a reason for people to use the West Pier we are ensuring that will happen.
