West End Project completed as Princes Circus opens

We are excited to share that we have now completed the West End Project transformation as the southern side of Princes Circus opens to the public.

Thank you to all local residents and businesses for their patience while we created a brand new public space outside the Shaftesbury Theatre complete with new trees, plants and lots of places to sit. We look forward to welcoming you to the new space soon.

Read our press release for more information.
