I SEE that the pavilions in Church Street, Blackburn are once again attracting the attention of the people of the town.

Councillor Rigby has kindly forwarded a figure, very conservative I might add, of the needs, money wise, to make the hairdressers a viable proposition - although this is only a start.

No-one proper has come forward as yet to tackle any of the pavilions. This is a mess and remains the council's folly. The reason for all the unease in the town centre is the orbital route which has set about strangling the centre of the town.
