The redevelopment of Rosegarth Square in Boston has reached several important stages, signalling steady progress on a scheme designed to reshape a significant part of the town centre.
Contractors have finished piling and installed the steel frame for the new multi-purpose building. The structure has been fireproofed and fitted with floor planks, forming the base of what will become a modern community facility.
Activity across the wider public realm is advancing. Groundworks are underway for new seating areas and public art installations. Tree pits have been prepared for future planting, and kerbing is being laid on the eastern side of the site near St Botolph’s Bridge. New walls are also emerging to guide pedestrian routes through the area.
Councillor Dale Broughton, Leader of Boston Borough Council said: “It is great to see so much progress on site since work began on the development at the start of the year.
“This project marks our commitment to bring positive change into Boston and can help breathe new life into our town and borough, turning an unused and unutilised area into an attractive and enjoyable space with new offers, opportunities and services for our residents and visitors to access.”
The next phase will see brickwork begin on the main building and the installation of major artworks. The regeneration is supported by £14.8m in government funding and will create a multifunctional public space running from the St Botolph’s footbridge to the Len Medlock Centre, targeting improved footfall, stronger placemaking and wider economic activity for businesses operating in the town centre.
