Bay says 'no' to street information hubs

TORBAY has joined the list of councils around the country to say no to more ‘hubs’ and information screens on its streets.

- 

The bay's planning officers have rejected a series of applications for hubs and screens in Union Street and Fleet Street. The decisions were made by officers without the applications coming before the planning committee.

BT applied for three of the three-metre-tall hubs in the town’s main streets - one at Tor Hill House outside Subway and two in Union Street, one outside McDonalds and the other outside Primark.
