The growth plans for Salford
Six growth locations have been identified across Greater Manchester as part of our integrated pipeline for growth. Each growth location has a distinct focus and relates to specific local areas.
Growth locations linked to Salford
- Central Growth Cluster: The Central Growth Cluster will build on the continuing high performance of the city centre growth engine – powered by the science and tech cluster on the Oxford Road Corridor, creative industries and Greater Manchester’s large business, financial and professional services community. This area will foster growing innovation districts at Sister and Salford Crescent, and major regeneration projects like Victoria North and Holt Town.
- Western Gateway: The Western Gateway connects New Carrington to the city centres, including Old Trafford and Port Salford. It is where the HYNET low carbon hydrogen project links to Greater Manchester, with plans to capitalise on its connectivity to support Greater Manchester’s low carbon economy.
