Elmbridge Parade - Mini Masterplan

Following consultation between February and April 2024, which reached over 900 respondents, and detailed conversations with key stakeholders, a plan for the Elmbridge Parade area has been prepared and is summarised on the plan hosted on this page. The plan proposes a wide range of exciting changes for the area, which are designed to respond to local opportunities and overcome the key challenges identified through the consultation. The changes include

1. Improved retail shop frontages with potential reuse or redevelopment of the

housing office and potential murals to blank gable frontages

1. Retained car park with improved landscape
2. New children's play area with natural play features integrated into the landscape
3. New market square and event space for community gatherings
4. Space for retail and cafés to spill onto the community space
5. Improved public realm, shared surfaces, new street furniture, street lighting and planting
6. Improvements to Church boundary to better integrate it into the rest of the centre
7. Improved pedestrian and cycle connections to Stalybridge and Stocksbridge Avenues

We see these changes as the start of a positive journey for Elmbridge Parade, allowing communities to come together and make better use of their local amenities, and prompting consideration of further improvements and developments in the area. As well as making physical improvements to the centre, we will also work with public sector partners to improve and make best use of Elmbridge Parade

We want to hear your views on these plans for change to make sure that they reflect what you have told us, focus on the right things and work for the local area.
