£1bn Trafford Waters scheme

Peel Land and Property has announced its plans for a mixed-use development scheme to be called Trafford Waters

The investment represents £1bn and will be on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal in Trafford, combining 3,000 flats with offices, shops and leisure facilities.

The group will formally submit a planning application this month.

The site will be linked to the Trafford Centre via a Green Bridge which will provide easy access to the bus station and Metrolink stop.

James Whittaker, Development Director at Peel Land & Property, said, “We have been working on the vision and masterplan for Trafford Waters for over 15 years.

“It will be an exemplar, sustainable development that will create a space for a new community to live, work and play. The strong links with the intu Trafford Centre and Trafford Leisure Village and unrivalled transport connections, including the Trafford Park Metrolink extension, will make Trafford Waters the place to be.
