Irwell City Park

A visionary project to restore a largely forgotten and ignored river into a major new linear park running though the heart of Greater Manchester. The project aims to create 8km of new footway and cycleway providing sustainable linkages between a range of important focal points of the city, as well as improving connections across the river through several new footbridges and enhancements to existing crossing points. In addition a number of new public spaces will bring new focuses of life and activity to the riverside and enliven the routes.
