Planning sought for new footbridge putting MediaCityUK right on the doorstep
Planning permission has been submitted for a new footbridge linking MediaCityUK development at The Quays to the South
Quay in Trafford, near the Imperial War Museum.
The cable-stayed bridge is designed to move to allow ships to continue to sail along the Ship Canal.
This will put MediaCityUK right on the doorstep of Warren Bruce Court.
Covering a 200-acre site, MediaCityUK will be the country’s first purpose-built media community.
From 2011 the BBC will host five departments including Sport and Radio 5 Live.
