Chapel Walk is an important walkway to the theatre and is in an appalling state with scaffolding, empty shops, filthy pavements and doorways, greeting every pedestrian.
Surely something can be done to improve this area, if only in the short term, not only for visitors but for the workers and shoppers who use the city centre.
