"The pounds 800,000 will enable work to be carried out on setting the framework for a number of projects, most involving design works and feasibility studies, which will form the springboard for the following phases of carrying out the works." A total of pounds 140,000 will be spent on studies for the future of St George's Square before a final detailed scheme is selected and prepared. The largest chunk of cash - around pounds 370,000 - will centre on detailed design and works on improvements to the appearance of Fitzwilliam Street. This will include new stone pavements and kerbs, heritage lighting and road re-surfacing to form access to the warehouse site. About pounds 40,000 of the support from Yorkshire Forward will enable preliminary investigations and consultations on the scope for re-vamping St Peter's Garden. Following the listing of the library and market hall, further work costing pounds 70,000 will be carried out on options for the re-development of that area of the town. External consultants will prepare a `traffic model' for the town centre to complement the Huddersfield renaissance programme.
