It's part of a plan to tackle the housing 'crisis' in the city
The Mayor of Salford has pledged to build hundreds of new council homes over the next four years if re-elected.
This includes 198 new homes and apartments under construction by the council for Dérive in Weaste, Charlestown and Little Hulton, 201 homes subject to planning approval or recently approved in Ordsall, Weaste and Cadishead, and 225 being built by partners in Little Hulton, Seedley and Blackfriars and Trinity.
