Wiltshire理事会计划拆除Trowbridge的St Stephen停车场和Castle Place购物中心,因为维修费用太低,试图将停车场的终身保有权转移给Tahir Ali所有者,以结束法律限制,实现重新开发。 Wiltshire Council plans to demolish Trowbridge’s St Stephen’s car park and Castle Place shopping centre due to unaffordable maintenance, seeking to transfer the car park’s freehold to owner Tahir Ali to end legal restrictions and enable redevelopment. 该理事会说,没有任何修复或重建方案在财政上是可行的,如果向开发商支付250万英镑的里程碑式付款,就可以抵消140万至160万英镑的拆除费用。 The council says no repair or rebuild option is financially viable, and a potential £2.5 million in milestone payments to the developer could offset demolition costs of £1.4–1.6 million. 这项举措与过去的总计划一致,旨在创造新的住宅和休闲空间,尽管在2024年购买了534 000英镑的购物中心之后,对透明度和纳税人费用仍然存在关切。 The move, aligned with past masterplans, aims to create new homes and leisure space, though concerns remain over transparency and taxpayer costs after the shopping centre was bought for £534,000 in 2024.
