The mixed-use scheme has been unveiled for public consultation ahead of plans being submitted to build on the former Kellogg’s site in Stretford.

The council’s proposals also include the possible development of a new public piazza and ‘processional route’ linking Lancashire Cricket Club with Manchester United’s Old Trafford stadium.

The strategic vision is being created with consultancy team Avison Young, Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios and Planit-IE.

Andrew Cooke, regional director for Bruntwood Works said: “We’re pleased to be bringing forward this exciting vision for a vibrant mixed-use development, which will sit at the heart of the Trafford Civic Quarter community.

“The next phase of development will provide the facilities and amenities to anchor and support the sustainable long-term growth of the area – providing high-quality housing and education, alongside an attractive retail and leisure proposition, which will bring people to the area and enable local businesses to attract and retain first-class talent.”
