MediaCityUK footbridge gets the go-ahead
posted Nov 24, 2008 - 09:50 PM | 2 comments
Remember the proposed MediaCityUK footbridge that looks like a big feather? Well I hope you liked the look of it, because it's been approved planning permission.
The 250-foot long, 32m-high bridge will cross over Manchester Ship Canal from MediaCityUK to Trafford Wharf Road. Trafford's planning development control committee hopes the bridge will help regenerate Trafford Wharfside, and expect the bridge to be a "landmark destination" in its own right.
You can see various images of the footbridge here.

Not a lot of MediaCityUK news to report since the ITV bombshell, except perhaps this article from the FT about the positive impact MediaCityUK is likely to have on Salford and the surrounding areas. The article also provides a quick introduction to the local housing market - useful if you're looking at relocating to Salford. Mar 26, 2009 - 11:04 PM
Debate about the BBC's staff relocation packages continues to rumble on and on - Liz Hunt at the Telegraph says, "I can't be the only taxpayer with northern credentials who feels insulted by the implication that having to up sticks from the South East is akin to an enforced relocation to Mogadishu or Harare." (full article here). Meanwhile, Andy Spinoza at How-Do offers some relocation advice to BBC staff - "Some media people will find the value, community, and friendliness on offer in the likes of Monton and Eccles more appealing than the fancy nick-nack shops of Didsbury..."
