Future vision for Worksop
I for one would like to see:
The A1 corridor exploited for commercial and recreational use. Harworth and Markham Moor to have industrial and warehousing investment.
Out of town recreational and retail units along the A1 to draw in customers from a 75 mile radius as well as overnight travellers on the motorway.
To develop a Lee Westwood golf complex.

To identify some medium sized businesses that could grow into something bigger in partnership with the council.
To utilise our central geographical location to attract a national sports or artistic HQ complex.
