Greater Manchester town in £20,000 high street boost as multi-million pound plans take step forward

Stretford has been chosen as one of five towns to get a huge chunk of money toward improving its high street.

The area is set to benefit from £20,000 as part of a national pilot scheme and will become what’s known as a community improvement district. The programme aims to give local people, community organisations and businesses a say over improvements to their high streets.

Stretford already sits at the centre of joint plans for multi-million pound high street improvements from Trafford council and developers Bruntwood.
