Bacup Road
Discover the plans for Bacup Road – new homes, business space, improved shopfronts, and a revitalised riverside linking to the town centre
Bacup Road, Rawtenstall
This part of town will become the home of new leisure opportunities, town centre living and emerging tech firms. Developing the site of the Heritage Arcade there will be a mix of new residential, retail and business space. This will be complemented with the Town Hall and space above shops to provide good quality business and training space.
The block will see shop front improvements with the reintroduction of heritage awnings and bring empty units back into use. A route across the Irwell to the Town Square will see the creation of a park along the side of the Limey providing space for recreation and cafes.
