MetroCentre is considered to be the leading shopping centre in the UK in terms of tenant mix, transport links and catering offer. The shopping centre has recently been extended and refreshed and houses the top 20 UK retailers together with major department stores, specialist niche retailers, leisure operators and a range of restaurants. Investment continues to be made to keep MetroCentre at the forefront of retailing. Construction has started to redevelop the centre's leisure facilities which will be bought together in the yellow mall. The scheme will provide a new bowling and family entertainment centre, a new cinema, restaurants and a stunning exterior, opening autumn 2009. Together with the Metro Retail Park adjacent to MetroCentre, this is a truly unique destination.
