Jan, we suspect Westwood Cross has caused closure of a lot of shops in Margate because people give up trying to get past it, the traffic jams are the worst in Kent!
I agree with you about a leisure attraction, it's the one thing I have heard people moaning about since the 60s, and that was when we had three cinemas in the town.
We don't have a theatre apart from the small one in the Discovery Centre - we have been to a couple of good events there but there doesn't seem to be a regular program of productions. A multi-function entertainment venue like the
Horsebridge Centre in Whitstable is the one thing that was crying out to be included in DTIZ.
