"It's been quiet, come and visit us," say market bosses

Customers are being reminded the market is open for business

Shoppers are being urged to visit a Doncaster town market - hit by a slump in business because of ongoing roadworks.

Mexborough Market bosses have called on shoppers for support - and have even produced a video urging people to drop in.

They say trade has been hit because of works taking place in the area.

A spokesperson said: “Whatever else is happening in Mexborough right now, the Market Hall is still very much open.

“It has been really quiet of late, though, so we really need old customers to come back and new customers to discover us.

“If all the drilling is offputting, please use the back entrance shown in the video and you can avoid it all.

“There are a whole host of friendly local traders inside who need the people of Mexborough to support them now more than ever.

The main market days are Monday, Friday and Saturday, and selected stalls also open on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

The spokesperson added: “We hope to see you soon.”
