The City Centre, which is located in both Manchester and Salford, is the most significant economic location in the country outside London. It’s the primary focus for business, retail, leisure, culture and tourism activity in Greater Manchester.

City Centre Salford has undergone huge transformation and will continue to develop, with a series of distinct but interdependent neighbourhoods, each with its own strong sense of place, making a major contribution to the city’s success.

Along with over 150,000m2 of new office development there will be a considerable increase in retail floorspace, leisure uses, community and social facilities (including health and education facilities) and other amenities to support the growing residential, business and visitor populations, and contribute to the vitality of City Centre Salford.
