Strong winds cause Crewe’s indoor market to shut up shop after falling scaffold boards

- Advertisement -

CREWE’S indoor market was forced to close over safety fears due to the strong winds.

The decision was taken today (Monday, February 7) after two short wooden boards from scaffolding on the roof of the adjoining Municipal Buildings blew off onto the roof of the market shortly before 11am.

Although there were no injuries and the roof was not damaged, a decision was quickly taken by Cheshire East Council to close the market on the grounds of safety to traders and the public.

The market will remain closed until this risk has been removed and the wind has died down sufficiently

A spokesman for Cheshire East Council said: “Four workers from subcontractors responsible for the scaffolding are currently on site ensuring all scaffolding is secure.

“They will remain there to monitor and maintain safety throughout the day.

“Council staff are also on hand to explain the situation to the public and keep them away from the market.”
