Tourist centre change
18 November 2004
THE Tourist Information Centre (TIC) in St Albans Town Hall will be back under district council control from next April.
This will take place when the council's existing contract with Leisure Connection expires.
The council plans to expand and improve the centre as a complete tourist attraction. Cllr Melvyn Teare, portfolio holder for Heritage, Arts and Tourism said: "This is an opportunity to bring it back in house. It is an excellent example of where I'm able to put more of a focus on arts, culture and leisure in St Albans."
Incorporated within the plans is the decision to make the Town Hall into a tourist attraction with the opening up of the courtroom and assembly rooms and the installation of a coach lay-by outside.
