Help us shape the future of transport for the city centre

This is your chance to have your say on city centre transport so that we can improve it for the future. TfGM, Manchester City Council and Salford City Council would like to find out what residents, employees and visitors think of transport in the city centre today and what, if anything, you’d change. For more information on the strategy click here.

The map shows the city centre boundary, which has grown over recent years to include parts of Salford as well as Ancoats and New Islington. It also shows the city centre neighbouring areas which we know can be impacted by what goes on in the city centre. Also included on the map are planned key transport interventions. The online map is an opportunity for you to highlight why and where improvements could be made to make it easier to travel into or around the city centre. For example, this could include:

• This pedestrian crossing doesn’t give people enough time to cross
• If there was less traffic on this road it would create a better space for people walking and cycling
• The pavement around this bus stop gets very busy when lots of passengers are waiting for the bus
• There isn’t enough cycle parking in this location
• This location needs better provision for blue badge drivers to park
• This location is difficult to walk along as delivery vehicles or cars often end up parking on the pavement
• This would be a good location for an electric vehicle charging point
• This location needs better signage for visitors to the city centre to help them find their way
• There is nowhere to sit and relax/rest in this location
• The paving/road is very uneven/potholed on this street
• This junction is difficult to understand for motorists due to poor signing

The above examples are ideas of the types of comments that would be helpful to us. You may want to add comments whilst completing the online survey. You are able to make comments on the map between 8th August and 17th October.

The Greater Manchester Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Proposal map was published earlier in the summer and has also provided the opportunity for respondents to comment on the walking and cycling across GM as well as in the city centre area. We will also use the comments we receive on potential city centre walking and cycling network improvements to inform the future transport strategy.
