Queensgate revamp image released

A new image has been released showing how Peterborough’s Queensgate shopping centre should appear after an £8 million facelift. Work began on Tuesday on the refurbishment of the centre which will see extensive changes including new lighting, doors and redesigned cladding, ceilings and internal finishes. All the works will take place overnight when the centre is closed to ensure visitors and retailers are unaffected by the refurbishment. The refurbishment, designed by multi-award winning architecture studio Benoy, should be completed in November this year. It will pave the way for a separate £30 million development that will see the creation of a multi-screen cinema in the centre along with a string of restaurants and stores.
