The old market square

St Neots Market Square is getting a makeover. The sign says 'work starting here from 8.1.24 for 60 weeks'! They have finished the road to the left of the picture, and also to the back of the picture, so the access hasn't been restricted. Also they leave room for some market stalls to trade every Thursday and every other Saturday. Sadly, the veggie stall wasn't there today

I keep wondering what it will look like when it’s finished. It’s a shame that they removed the trees

60 weeks seems a very long time for the makeover project! Nice photo of its present appearance.

[Bill Davidson]

A lengthy project

Hopefully it will be finished soon! How wonderful to have a market, we have a few stalls on a Saturday selling rubbish!

Lovely scene and colours.

60 weeks sounds an incredibly long time! It does seem very orderly though so not too much upheaval!

[Carole Sandford]

Over a year seems rather excessive! A lot of upheaval.

[Babs]

Really neat market stalls.

Lovely street scene!

SIXTY WEEKS !!!!!!!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

That's a long time for repairs but hopefully they will go faster than a year and a half!

[Lois]

That’s a loooong time!!

[Issi Bannerman]

Oh, wow, that'll be a while before it's finished then?! Nice capture.

[Diana]

A lovely capture and scene, it sure is going to take a long time! Hope your veggie stall will be back soon.

[Dione Giorgio]

Lovely shot, still. I like walking through market stalls and just enjoy the hustle and bustle of people movement around the stalls.

[Brian]

A great story telling image and narrative.

[Kerry McCarthy]

60 weeks is a pretty long time and oddly specific. I wonder how they calculate it.

[Judith Johnson]

@mccarth1 I agree! In fact when I first saw the sign, I mistook it for 60 days! Some of the main roadworks through the centre of town have been quite disruptive, with 4-way stops and long waits

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Lovely shot but that does seem to be a long time. Still inviting looking.

I hope your veg stall comes back. And that the market is even bigger and better... in sixty weeks time!!

[Margaret Brown]

So quiet ! Our once thriving market is as quiet as this now!
