Google Street View brings Coronation Street fans closer to the street

The street has been added to Google Street View as ITV invites fans to see it from the view point of the soap's characters

Earlier this year producers invited the Google Trike to drive down the cobbled street and take in everything from Audrey's hair salon to The Kabin.

Fans will be able to access Google Street View directly from the re-launched ITV.com/Corrie.  

The soap celebrates its 50^th Anniversary next year and there will be extensive marketing activity to promote it. Brand partners already involved include Harvey's and Imperial Leather.
