The creation of a travel hub is the first phase of a £100M regeneration project to create 'a new village centre'
Work is set to start in October to deliver a £14m multi-storey car park and travel hub in the centre of Prestwich. The project is the the first phase of a massive £100m regeneration project to create a new village centre which includes demolition of the current Longfield centre, a new retail centre, market hall and community hub along with more than 200 new homes.
A design and access report in support fo the plans said the north and west elevations of the building will be clad in feature brick panels in keeping with the Prestwich character. The south elevation will be clad in a feature perforated metal with the opportunity for incorporating a local Prestwich motif.
The building will have 20 accessible spaces, 26 electric vehicle charging spaces along with 76 cycle spaces. Included in the plans is space for Amazon and other delivery lockers along with a transport live update information screen. The cabinet report said that subject to the entire regeneration project being granted planning permission later this month, work on the travel hub would begin in October or November and take around a year to complete. Key dates for the rest of the regeneration scheme are for work on the community hub, retail and leisure hub, market hall and public realm to start around the end of 2025 and continue until mid-2027, alongside the construction of the first residential plot .
