Our vision for Irwell City Park

Irwell City Park encapsulates a vision to create a new and exciting urban park running along the natural course of the Irwell, through central Salford, Manchester and Trafford.

Unleashing the potential of this major waterway, the park will help to connect people with places and opportunities and provide an unrivalled public realm for people to enjoy.

A well-lit, safe and welcoming environment, Irwell City Park will put the river at the heart of the community as well as creating cycle ways and walkways against a scenic backdrop of stunning architecture.

Buzzing with activity in places, though also offering quiet solitude, this urban park will sensitively combine the region's natural assets while offering access to all the amenities of city life - just a short walk away.
