Abstract:		 This programme of work was undertaken during March and April 2016, comprising the excavation of eight trenches and five boreholes, in three parts of the redevelopment. This work follows, and was informed by, evaluations undertaken by Oxford Archaeology North on behalf of Chester West and Chester Council during April/May 2015. The state of archaeological remains across the present bus station(indeed, whether any significant archaeology survived)in the aftermath of previous redevelopments and excavations in the early 1980s was unclear and thus three trenches were excavated in this area. The trenching produced important results, establishing that a depth of 600mm of intact Roman archaeological deposits, as well as structural remains, survive intact and undisturbed. Considered in conjunction with the evidence from further west on Hunter Street, the work indicates that a large area to the south of Hunter Street retains significant archaeological deposits. In addition, a further small trench was e4xcavated in July 2016 at the location of Borehole 7. This was to test the infiltration capacity of the area of the New Market Square.
