AN exhibition on ideas for the future of Bishop Auckland town centre, which was scheduled to start tomorrow, has been postponed.

The display was due to be held at Bishop Auckland Town Hall library but is now planned for early next year.

Design and architectural experts Red Box, from Newcastle, were appointed by Wear Valley District Council in May to update an earlier development scheme for the town centre, first produced four years ago.

A spokesman for the consultancy team said: "The council has asked us to carry out some more analysis and draw up more specific details about particular schemes and areas of the town."
