Council unable to attract competitive tenders to make an awardHERTFORD THEATRE REDEVELOPMENT STALLS
In May 2021 Civic Society members received presentations from the East Herts Council about the Hertford Theatre Redevelopment.
A video recording of those presentations can be accessed from HERE ……
Cllr Eric Buckmaster, Executive Member for Wellbeing at East Herts Council is reported (December 2021) to have said: "Hertford Theatre has been closed and work undertaken by specialist contractors to remove asbestos and prepare the site for construction works in recent months….. the current financial climate, and supply chain issues being experienced in the construction sector, have meant the process of sourcing a contractor is taking longer than expected …Works are now scheduled to start in Spring 2022 and we are working toward an opening in late 2023.”

Trams are highly efficient public transport. Trams are electric, so emit no fumes. On May 1st 2019 MP's declared a climate change emergency. HCC has also done so. How will the county change its strategy?
Trams are fast reliable comfortable
Easy and attractive travel.
Trams avoid road congestion with their own routes and priority at road junctions. .
Trams make places attractive for people
Routes through town centres. Integrated with local buses. Links to where most people want to go.
Trams reduce car journeys and road traffic
Trams change travel habits. Because trams are attractive and reliable, car use drops dramatically and so does road traffic. Air quality improves.
