Trading Hours Survey

The Trader Representative Committee (TRC)would like input from Market traders about Market trading hours and the possibility of late night trading of the market.


1.   Current Trading Hours:

Do you agree that the current trading hours of the market provide the best opportunity for your business to be successful?  (please circle your response)

YES                   OR                   NO


Do you support proposed trading hours of closing the market at 3.00pm on weekdays? 
(please circle your response)

YES                   OR                   NO


Do you support proposed trading hours of closing the market at 4.00pm on weekends?
(please circle your response)

YES                   OR                   NO


2.   Late Night Trading:

We want to find out from you if and when you would like to open for one late night in the week.

It is envisaged that the market could offer our customers late night shopping and stay open until 8pmOR 9pm one night.  The New Market Pavilion can provide an opportunity to trial late night trading for both customers and traders who would like to open.

It is hoped that if we plan for this,we will be able to start late trading when the New MarketPavilion is opened. This will give us the opportunity to promote the renewed market hours as well as the opening of the pavilion.

We are happy for you to be anonymous in your answers and assure you there will be no negative outcomes for you regardless of your answers.

If you would like to become a late night trader it would help to identify yourself at this stage so work can be done on planning for the changes.

You can put your Trader name and/or Trader number here if you choose:
