Nottingham City Council has released updated details of a £20 million regeneration project designed to revitalise Bulwell town centre, with key improvements targeted at enhancing infrastructure and supporting local commerce.
Funded by the UK Government’s Levelling Up initiative, the investment will focus on upgrading public amenities, improving trader facilities, and strengthening the town’s retail environment. Among the planned works are significant updates to Bulwell Market Place, including refurbishing stalls, modernising electrical supplies for vendors, and enhancing overall public realm features such as paving, seating, and planting.
The Bulwell Bogs area, a central recreational spot, will receive an expanded water play zone, new changing facilities, and a refreshments kiosk. Additional security and lighting improvements, including upgraded CCTV, are also planned to support safety and usability.
Public toilets at the bus station are set to be rebuilt to modern standards, aligning with broader efforts to improve accessibility and comfort across the town centre.
The project also aims to create stronger links between the shopping centre and surrounding public spaces, enhancing the pedestrian experience and overall footfall to benefit local businesses.
Council-led information sessions will take place at Bulwell Market on two upcoming dates in May to gather community input. Construction is expected to begin in the autumn.
