Where is…

The map shows the proposed BID area for Southside. It is designed to sit next to the already successful Retail BID that covers the city centre shopping core.

Within the area there are 299 eligible businesses (properties with a rateable value of over £10,000) including independent retailers, hotels, theatres, bars, clubs, warehouses, car parks and restaurants. The area includes key businesses and locations such as: The Hippodrome, The Radisson Hotel, The Arcadian, The E-tap Hotel, The Electric Cinema, The Old Rep Theatre, Hurst Street Bars and Clubs, The O2 Academy, The Wholesale Markets and the Chinese Quarter plus other retail and office units.

At the proposed 2% levy, the BID has the capability to raise £1.75million of extra investment for additional services to improve the Southside area including which is over £350,000 each year.
