The first 2 weeks of the project have seen the completion of the construction site around the hall. I think you'll agree it's a bit of a change. Audiences seem to be coping with navigating the area better than I am. We have started putting our front of house ushers right out into the streets before each concert to ensure that we can direct as many people around the area and into the hall and other theatres/resturants. Poster sites are being erected on the hoardings today and these will display local map information. Poster sites for the theatres and restaurants are currently being made.
Parking and traffic management continues to exercise many, especially our neighbours. Access to Cambridge Street is restricted and the road around the hall is closed. Audiences are advised to allow extra time to get to the hall in case of problems. Our advice, and that of the Lyceum and Traverse Theatres is to park in the NCP on Castle Terrace and walk over. Spaces for Blue Badge holders are on Grindlay Street, accessible from Cornwall Street. Traffic Wardens, or whatever their current title is, are being asked to provide extra cover in the area and the NCP is cheaper than a fine!
