two.2.4) Description of the procurement

Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council has been successful in bidding and being awarded funding through the Department of Levelling Up.

The Funds aim to renew and reshape town centres and high streets in a way that drives growth, improves experience, and ensures future sustainability. It will do this by providing funding to support transformative and structural changes to overcome challenges in their area.

The project aims to tackle the declining physical infrastructure blighting Dinnington town centre. The vast majority of the land and property on the site is privately owned therefore the £11,049,549 capital investment plus £216,236 match funding will facilitate strategic site assembly and demolition of burnt out and problematic buildings to pave the way for redevelopment.

Selective demolition and refurbishment of the shopping parade will open up a direct route from the bus station and car parks and create a clearer and safer gateway to the High Street. The development of modern flexible commercial space set around a new town square will signal much needed investment in the town, helping it to adapt and to sustain the future retail and service industry.

The development will be complemented with high-quality public realm that also serves to increase natural surveillance and tackle anti-social behaviour hotspots. The scheme will also support a more attractive, modern, and safe market space.

The proposal is to demolish the burnt-out building, the indoor market, the outdoor market, the colliery band building, and half of the shopping parade (36 - 44 Laughton Road).

These structures will be replaced with six new commercial units, a pop-up market, a new commercial / community building to be used for public rental, and a fully landscaped area of public realm to create a new market square and clear routes between Laughton Road, the bus station, and well-used car parks.

The remaining half of the shopping parade will be refurbished to complement the rest of the regeneration project.
