A sign showing commitment from blue chip retailers to Bradford has gone up at the site of the forthcoming £260 million Broadway shopping centre.
The Westfield sign, listing Marks & Spencer, Debenhams and Next as the flagship stores, shows that the long-awaited development is moving closer to fruition, said Bradford Council leader David Green, pictured in front of the sign.
Work is due to start on the site later this year, but a date has yet to be confirmed by Australian-based Westfield, which is the world’s leading developer of shopping centres.
