New Year demolition planned for £20m Bootle Strand

Sefton Council has confirmed that strip-out and preparation work will happen after the summer, with buildings ready to be torn down in early 2025.

The Strand Transformation - Event Space

Hoardings will be going up later this year to signal the start of the demolition to make way for a revamp of the Strand Shopping Centre.

A digital creative hub, office space, and an integrated health and social care facility are also proposed at the heart of the redevelopment.

Eventually, the Strand will be transformed with leisure, education, and health service provision, and more green spaces while keeping a retail offer in the town centre.

This is one of the most important developments in Sefton as it will transform the town centre and make it a place for even more people to come and enjoy.

Cllr Marion Atkinson, Leader of Sefton Council

 

The project was awarded £20m through the government’s Levelling Up Fund
