Candidates standing in next week’s elections have shared their plans on how they intend to revitalise the town centre. The economic recovery from the pandemic and the impact that it has had on Basingstoke town centre is a key feature of many of the parties’ campaigns. Promises range from creating a rescue plan to rent cuts, and less aggressive parking policies to creating an experience that cannot be replicated online. The last year has been devastating for retail and hospitality, with subsequent lockdowns and restrictions affecting revenue and seeing many businesses disappear. The big names have also been affected, with the likes of Debenhams, Zara and John Lewis all announce closures recently.
