Applicant NWP says the new kiosks would mirror other phone boxes in Blackpool which have already been converted to the new style
Blackpool town centre's tired phone boxes could be replaced with snazzy, modern vestibules, if developers have their way.
Planning applications have been submitted for the new style hubs to be installed on Topping Street, outside the Sea Life Centre on Central Promenade and next to Coral Island on New Bonney Street.A planning statement says: “This application is part of an on-going strategy for the rationalisation and upgrade of the estate in Blackpool, aiming to reduce the overall number of kiosks whilst installing new telecommunications infrastructure which better meets the needs of society.
“The new kiosks will feature enhanced electronic communication services to the public and the upgrade and removal process will be part funded by revenues from advertising.”
