however I heard Tescos have bought this land and intend to charge people to park, or free if going Tescos, so the market will lose customers it is aimed at, serve um right if everyone goes on their own carprk and shops accross to the market.
All the market traders also now have no where free to park and have to pay.

Should prove very useful for these Warrington folk, who can't find anywhere to park in our town, on big match days!  |

leigh market cant compete with tesco in most ways, it should be free carparking for everyone and they can choose where to shop.
if i want a birthday card for my wife and goto leigh for it it will probibly put 70p on top of the price for parking to goto the market but nothing to goto tesco we need to keep the main town going as a buisness otherwise it going to die! |

I see there's free parking at the council run sites in Wigan over the Christmas period. I haven't seen anything similar planned for Leigh.

Why do we have to park at the front of a shop these days - does anyone use their legs anymore?
There are many side streets around the town centre were you can park for 1 hour for nowt while you nip and buy your birthday card. These are within a couple of minutes walk from the town centre - and just a minute further away you can have 2 hours. If you park in my street you can have all day and it will take you less than 5 minutes to get to the centre of Leigh. Let's not keep slagging everything Leigh off. Just been on holiday darn sarf and spoke with two ladies from Ince who prefer to shop in Leigh every Friday - it isn't a bad little town you know. |

think you need to read my post again 
im all for leigh and the shops. when large companys come in then leigh as a small town they can not compete with the multi billion quid companys what i was saying was free parking for all and you can shop anywhere and save that extra penny,not every one is able and/or can be d to walk. i for 1 park on waterside and walk in leigh i'm thinking of other people who are thinking of the pennys in this recession and this would help the shops.
slagging leigh off don't think so |

Sorry Moggie - nothing personal.
I was commenting on your bit about the cost of a birthday card - and that you could add 70p due to parking costs. I was stating that you didn't need to pay that if you were prepared to walk a few yards. Park on Tesco and nip accross the road to the market - simple. I would never buy a card from ASDA / Tesco etc and I have not changed my shopping habbits since Tesco opened. And judging buy the queues in Home & Bargain at 4.30pm last Friday evening , neither have many more. The more big names in Leigh the better - that's my view (No one think it might bring more shoppers in?). Maybe if the old brigade years ago had not been so selfish we may have had a M & S etc instead of charity & discount shops.
Sorry Fred - was that aimed at me? If so, please advise what the problem is.
