Background information
Bruntwood formed a joint venture with Bury Council in 2022, to acquire the Mill Gate shopping centre as part of a wider regeneration plan. The public consultation follows on from the launch of Bury Council’s Bury Town Centre Masterplan which outlines ambitious regeneration proposals for the town centre. The purpose of the masterplan is to help Bury adapt and evolve, and most importantly, reflect the future needs of local communities.
