The Cheshire East Council in the UK has signed a development agreement with Peveril Securities Ltd for the development of a new bus station with an enclosed passenger waiting area, a 400-space multi-storey car park and leisure, restaurant, and retail units –anchored by a new state-of-the-art cinema at Royal Arcade in Crewe.

Demolition works at the Royal Arcade site will start to take place in mid-October. This will see the final services disconnected and asbestos removed ahead of machinery arriving on-site – leading the way for the site to be clear by May 2021. The project is scheduled to be operational in Spring 2023.
