Cheshire West and Chester Council has confirmed that Chester Market will re-open on Thursday 13 April at 8am.
The temporary closure followed a serious incident on Wednesday 29 March in one of the adjoining units, where gas works were being carried out.
The delay in reopening the market has been due to necessary demolition works to a party wall and the erection of safety hoarding around the affected area. The market has now been declared fully safe to be used by the public.
The Market traders have been informed about the activities in the building daily and are back in the building today (Tuesday 11 April) to start preparations for re-opening.
Chester Market has 28 exciting stalls, half of the stalls offer local produce (butcher, fishmonger, deli), gifts, plants and other essentials. The other half offer a superb range of food & drink; or just grab a coffee and enjoy the space.
