HOW wonderful is it to see so much development happening in Northwich town centre.

For too long the skyline has been the same.

I visited Northwich last week and it’s the first time I’ve been there since 2008. I hardly recognised the place.

With so much doom and gloom in other places, local people must be delighted that so much investment is happening.

Yes the car parking took a bit of navigating, but when I learned that the town is to get a cinema and new supermarket, along with the lifestyle centre and the Waitrose site which is already open, isn’t some short term pain worth the long term gain?

There are a lot of towns in the north west which will be looking on in envy at what’s taking place in Northwich.

I for one can’t wait until it’s all open for business. Northwich will be a great place to visit and to shop again.
