Attendees at
the QVM Committee of Trustees meeting last Tuesday were given a rare view of
the “big hole” at Munro’s which gave some clarity to how this new area will
work particularly in regard to car parking convenience.
The photo at the top is taken from the South side of the site, looking across to the market and shows the clear delineation of each car park level. H&I Sheds can be seen across the street.
Two things
standout :
Firstly, the
compactness of the site – the parking spaces will all be located within a
fairly small area.
Secondly, this new location is closer to the fresh food
areas that most car park customers will be headed for.
The new
location may change some customer access patterns, but in terms of convenience
for food shoppers in particular, there would appear to be some pluses.
