It is hoped that the revamped Civic will be 'a catalyst' for growth
'Once in a generation' plans to transform Wythenshawe Civic Centre, including a new public square, cultural hub and food hall are set to go ahead. The major plan to redevelop the 1970s site could also see 1,500 low carbon homes built.
A new mobility hub would 'centralise' car parking at the Civic, offering electric vehicle charging and cycle hire. Existing buildings would be refurbished and new shops built with the aim of creating a 'sustainable net zero town centre'. Labour councillor Gavin White, who is executive member for housing and development at the council, said: "It’s not an understatement to say that this is a unique, once-in-a-generation opportunity to invest in Wythenshawe’s Civic Centre and create lasting change and benefits for these communities.
The town hall said 'adequate' parking would be provided as well as investment to encourage sustainable forms of active travel such as walking and cycling. It follows feedback during the consultation which 'welcomed' centralising car parking at the Civic by turning the multi-storey car park into a mobility hub.
