The first drop-in event, held in November, attracted a large audience who shared feedback on how they wanted the plans to take shape and how it could fulfil the community’s overall priorities for Stretford town centre. Key themes identified included a focus on retaining and attracting more independent businesses, improvements in leisure and shopping facilities and a need to make the area more accessible in the evenings.
The redevelopment of Stretford Mall is part of Trafford Council’s wider Stretford Masterplan. Earlier this year, the scheme successfully made it through to the second round of the Government’s £675m Future High Streets Fund (FHSF).
The fund, launched by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government in December 2018, is designed to support and fund local areas’ plans to make their high streets and town centres fit for the future.
Following feedback from the drop-in session, the joint partners will also be presenting broader ideas for the wider Stretford Masterplan for visitors to share their views on. Community feedback from the event will help to inform and support the FHSF’s bid.
Cllr Andrew Western, Trafford Council leader, said: “We’d like to thank everybody who participated in our first drop-in session in November. It was great to hear people’s enthusiasm for Stretford and the Mall. Everyone accepts that change must happen and we are determined that the community should be included in the debate about how we deliver these improvement changes for the Mall and the wider masterplan.”
