RESIDENTS in Brierfield are being urged to have their say on "big plans" for the town.

A public workshop is being held when proposals for the rejuvenation of the Railway Street area will be discussed.

Pendle Council hope the meeting will help shape future improvements in their area.

Coun Tony Greaves said: "I know some people feel they have been consulted to death, to no effect, but we really do intend that these new plans will help determine what will happen in the Railway Street area."

The meeting is part of the council's housing market renewal programme.In particular regenerating the housing areas between the main road and the railway will be looked at along with new development opportunities on vacant land.

The public workshop will be held on Saturday, October 7, from 2pm until 5.30pm in the People's Centre, Colne Road.
