A £100m plans to redevelop Prestwich is to take a further step forward with business owners and the town’s residents being asked to contribute to its shape. Proposals to demolish the current Longfield centre and replace it with independent businesses, a mix of homes, outdoor areas and a new community hub focused on health have been formed by Bury Council and development partners Muse.
They have announced dates next month for a ‘community conversation’ on its plans. The project called Your Prestwich states its intention to ‘transform the Longfield Centre and cement Prestwich as one of the best places to live in the North West’.
The community conversation will formally launch in January and provide information on the emerging vision and concept designs for the regeneration of Prestwich Village centre.
