A NEW shopping boulevard, a town square, market hall and central library will be in the town centre in three years' time.
The pencil sketches show off the proposed plans as part of a £41 million redevelopment scheme, which will also create more parking spaces.
Sir Steve Houghton, leader of Barnsley Council, said he was keen to make sure that people were supportive of the plans.
"We’ve asked hundreds of people and held several working groups," he added. "People were clear about what they wanted.
"We were told loud and clear that Barnsley needs to keep its markets, to create quality open spaces that feel safe and to make sure business servicing and parking needs are met.
"We hope these proposals will give confidence to local people and businesses, showing we’re serious about delivering these improvements.
"The next three years are going to be exciting, creating jobs and opportunities for people in Barnsley."
