Changes planned for Derby’s Pentagon Island

Work is due to start to improve the appearance of one of Derby’s busiest roundabouts – and bringing back the “Derby In Bloom” display. Derby City Council and partners are working to transform the green area around Pentagon Island, which thousands of motorists pass by each day. The news comes a year after its current overgrown appearance was likened to “Jurassic Park” when the “Derby in Bloom” display had become “non-existent”. The Labour-led council is working closely with Electric Daisy […]

Sad state of boarded up A38 homes in Derby

The state of once “big and beautiful” houses now completely boarded up on a street next to the A38 have been described as “disgusting”. All the homes on Queensway have been barricaded for some time after they were brought by National Highways, as part of a Compulsory Purchase Order (CPO). The houses have been destined for demolition for some time but this appeared to be confirmed when the Government committed to funding a major, but controversial, improvement scheme for the […]

Derby’s £35m Market Hall running at forecast £338k loss

Derby’s renovated Market Hall looks set to make a loss of £338,000, new documents have revealed. The Derby City Council-owned venue, which reopened in 2025 after a major £35 million restoration project, is according to a financial report forecast to be in the red next year due to “a shortfall of trader income”. The £338,000 shortfall was detailed in the Labour-led council’s Quarter One financial report for this municipal year (2026/27) and has sparked concern from some opposition officials on […]

Use of illegal e-scootes shows a big increase despite seizures

A “big increase” in the illegal use of e-scooters in Derby and wider county has been reported – despite hundreds of the vehicles destroyed by police. Derbyshire police has seized 850 e-scooters since it started a “seize-first” enforcement approach at the end of 2024 following complaints and safety concerns raised by residents. But officers have issued a further warning after seeing more of them on the streets, despite the actions taken in the last 18 months. It comes after force […]

Plans to pedestrianise historic Derby street as part of big city centre changes

One of the aims behind the proposal is to improve footfall on the Victorian street, with the Derby Museum and Art Gallery at its corner and night-time venues nearby. The 75-page report states that the area surrounding the Strand “holds many cultural destinations but a lack of […]

Hundreds call for urgent action as safety fears intensify at Derby park
