Council to consider Riverlights
Bus station
Will the bus station be redeveloped?
Protesters fighting controversial plans to redevelop Derby bus station will demonstrate outside the council house on Thursday.

The �83m Riverlights project includes apartments, shops, restaurants and bars.

The planning application for the project goes before the city council's Planning Control Committee on Thursday night.

It will make a final decision on whether the extension of the bus station and the construction of two new buildings will go ahead.

About 15,000 people have signed a petition opposing Riverlights.

Campaign leaders will gather on the steps of the council house to protest before the meeting.
