Lancashire County Council are urging architects and urban designers from around the world to enter their exciting open design competition. What’s really great about this news is that the competition is centred around the re-design of Preston Bus Station; with the intention of offering the people of Preston a new and exciting civic space, and a more attractive pedestrian route.

They Eat Culture worked in partnership with Manchester School of Architecture on Gate 81- our project centred on exploring preservation and ideas of creatively adapting the building to serve the City. 

Fast forward…now there’s an exciting competition to re-design part of the bus station - you can read more about it here:
