- City of York Council is consulting on a £1.5 million planned refurbishment of Newgate Market but traders have expressed concerns it won't secure the market's future. The refurbishment plans include widening the street and adding food kiosks but traders worry this may not attract more customers. Traders will meet with the council today to discuss the redevelopment plans and address their concerns about maintaining the market's viability. The council says the plans are based on surveys and are available for public view until next Monday.
