Confirmation of this came earlier today from North east Lincolnshire Council
The market, which fully re-opened on July 4, already has the following safety measures in place:
* The use of a one-way system
* Floor markers to ensure shoppers remain two metres apart and queuing arrangements with each trader
* Additional cleaning procedures
Mark-wearing will represent another initiative aimed at keeping cornavirus at bay.
“The safety of shoppers is paramount," says NELC's deputy leader, Cllr John Fenty.
"We and we are fully committed to the protection of the local economy by making sure the market is a safe place for all those who use it.
He continued: “I should like to thank residents for their continued support and co-operation with all of the safety measures that have been introduced.
"We will continue to review these measures in line with Government guidance and look forward to welcoming customers to the market.”
