Three housing developments that could alter the status quo of Mosley Common due to be decided over the next few months
Over the coming months, the makeup of a small suburb of Greater Manchester on the border between Wigan and Salford could become drastically different.
Coun Watson explained at the Confident Places Scrutiny committee back in February 2023 that section 106 money should be spent in the area in order to cope with these big changes in population. Despite numerous concerns, Peel L&P have expressed they are planning investment into the road network and have targeted specific junctions where traffic builds in order to help alleviate congestion.
According to the design and access statement, at the heart of the proposals for the Land North of Mosley Common is the 'vision to create truly distinctive neighbourhoods which offer a wide range of new homes to meet the needs of different sectors of the community and for all stages of life'. The different areas of the site will include: Mosley Woods, Bridgewater Village, Tyldesley Fields, Honksford Meadows, Platts Fold Fields and Mosley Village.
“In addition to the provision of new homes, residents will also be within walking distance of a new busway stop and travel hub on the Leigh Guided Busway and a network of footpaths and cycleways, improving access to the surrounding area including local town centres and Walkden train station. The scheme features a new destination parkland, providing opportunities for ecological improvements and recreation, and connecting people to nature.
