InTramCities with Gordon Stewart


Manchester, United Kingdom : 1st June, 2024

The city of Manchester and the adjoining city of Salford are experiencing a building boom of unprecedented magnitude. The backdrops to many tramway routes are changing rapidly. InTramCities revisits the Salford Quays area, the first area to experience redevelopment, which continues to this day with an explosion of offices, apartments, leisure complexes and the nationally important Media City, a major home to the nation's television broadcasters. Detailed coverage is given to the Eccles line beyond the Salford Quays area and to the tram lines in central Manchester.

Above : Trams at the foot of the ramp leading from the Deansgate-Castlefield metrolink stop returning to ground level from the elevated  former main-line railway alignment which once led into the now repurposed Manchester central station, seen to the right. At street level, trams run along the traffic-calmed Lower Mosley Street to St Peter's Square and onwards to the city centre. The backdrop to views from St Peter's Square has changed dramatically in recent years with the construction of numerous high-rise blocks, a feature of many parts of this rapidly renewing and growing metropolis.
