High street vacancies rise to 11% - 2010 - Property Week 76(22) 4 June 2010, 36(1) .

The average availability rate across some of Great Britain's top streets was 11.1% at 1 May 2010 according to Cushman and Wakefield's latest research, a fall from 12.2% in 2009. The market feels that retail availability is declining but this is not yet reflected by the statistics. Availability as a consequence of administrations is a diminishing factor and shopping centre availability appears to be lower.
