Revised Armada Way plans are welcomed

Shop owners and Plymouth City Centre Company have hailed the proposals, currently under consultation, as “amazing”.

They are particularly excited about plans to include a huge “play village” for families, with a ship-shaped climbing frame. Caroline Sardu, owner of Baby Roo, in Armada Way, said: “Having a new play area is really exciting. The great big ship will bring footfall. It will be a new big family village hub.”

Businesses said that in recent years Armada Way has seen a serious decline in footfall, with many empty shop units. It has features that are in need of repair and have not been updated since the 1980s.
