The retail park at Weymouth Gateway has been approved by Dorset Council, subject to approval by Secretary of State. A NEW multi-million retail park at Weymouth Gateway has been approved by councillors after 18 months of debate. The new retail park is set to create hundreds of jobs and provide a major boost to Weymouth’s economy, with an estimated near £5million expected to be generated and £6million generated in business rates every year. This is what you need to know about the retail park and what happens next.
What is the retail park and where is it going to be built?
Councillor Richard Nickinson has backed the Weymouth Gateway development. COUNCILLORS and local business figures have thrown their support behind the proposed retail park plans at the Weymouth Gateway site, which were today being decided by planning bosses. Various figures across the political spectrum have backed the plans ahead of today s planning committee, stating the development will create hundreds of jobs, boost the local economy and lead to further investment into Weymouth. Councillor Richard Nickinson, Conservative Group Leader on Weymouth Town Council, noted he did not understand why Weymouth Town Council opposed the plans and their views do not reflect the majority view of Weymouth residents.
