Kirklees Council is seeking suitably experienced contractors to deliver the redevelopment of Dewsbury Market and creation of the new Town Park, a flagship element of the Dewsbury Town Centre Blueprint.

The outcome will be a revitalised civic hub that attracts residents, visitors, and businesses, integrates heritage with contemporary usage, and enhances the town's commercial and cultural offer. The project will be a MHCLG funded scheme with a funding gap that will be made up via Kirklees Council Capital funding.
