Earlier this year the council commissioned experts to look into the future of Burnley markets and report back.

That report has been carefully and fully considered and councillors are set to agree the way ahead for the indoor and outdoor markets.

We recognise this is an important process for the town as a whole. We have dealt with any decision on the future of the markets professionally and transparently so that everyone involved, staff, traders and the public, were fully informed.
