Barnsley town centre is undergoing a period of change.
Projects include:
The new Barnsley Interchange (now completed).

The Digital Media Centre (now completed).

Gateway Plaza at Town End (now completed).

Experience Barnsley – The creation of the Barnsley People's Museum and Archives Centre.
This project was awarded almost £3m of funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, which means two floors of Barnsley's distinctive town hall were transformed into state-of-the-art museum galleries, the first devoted to the borough's stories, past and present. (
Now completed)
Barnsley College A Block was completed and opened in September 2011.

Aimed for opening in 2021, a new area of town, covering the current Cheapside and semi-open market area is set to open by spring 2021.
The facility is under construction, and is named 'The Glass Works'.
The first stage of the development has opened and consists of the town's famous market.
The new facility will create an urban, glass and steel fronted open-top shopping area, comparable to that of Trinity Walk in Wakefield.
The development will include a 20-screen Cineworld cinema, bowling alley and high street brands never before seen in Barnsley. (
