Gating of Market Arcade at night
12 February - 27 February 2019
Following a public consultation in early 2018, the proposal to install gates to close Newport’s Market Arcade at night to deal with the problems of anti-social behaviour has been further developed with owners and occupiers of the business premises in the arcade.
