Brighton & Hove City Council Cabinet members have approved an additional £3 million budget for the restoration of 28 of the Madeira Terrace arches. The decision was made a special cabinet meeting.
Council Leader Bella Sankey added: “There has been strong public support for the restoration among residents and businesses, as well as from heritage organisations such as Historic England and the Victorian Society. We hope that completing this first phase will showcase how the Terrace can be successfully restored.”
“We are serious about finding a long-term solution to restoring and maintaining this iconic part of our historic seafront.
