Consultation process
As part of the paused double devolution work at Malton, extensive dialogue took place with the Town Council. They were supportive of the closure of Wentworth Street, alongside the refurbishment at Market Place, for which a scheme is currently being drawn up.
Back Micklegate toilets have been temporarily closed since March 2025, to date there has been little feedback on this arrangement. Local Members have been advised alongside Selby Town Council around the intention to permanently close this location due to the issues identified.
