The council is working to make the town centre and neighbourhood parades safe for the return of shoppers from Monday and would like to remind visitors to follow social distancing guidelines; pay by contactless where possible; follow directional signage; wear face coverings when social distancing isn’t possible; and be considerate and give way where paths are narrow.

Hospitality and licensed venues reopening on Monday will be allowed to serve food and beverages to people in outside spaces only.
