Go-ahead for Countryside and Investar

A 64,000 sq ft office building and a 400-space multi-storey car park are to be added to the mixed-use development close to Stockport station.

GT3 Architects has been appointed to design the facility on Loganberry Avenue opposite Salford Shopping Centre, and a construction firm is to be appointed in March. 

More than 4,000 homes, 500,000 sq ft of employment space, reimagined White City Retail Park and a new neighbourhood on a former police HQ site are all proposed by the council.

Primus Property Group has submitted fresh plans for a 178-home scheme on Worrall Street in Ordsall, previously earmarked for a scheme by Forshaw Land & Property. 

The housebuilder has acquired 13 acres off Bainbridge Avenue in the village of Lowton and plans to start construction of the units by the end of the month. 

The developer plans to create the 625,000 sq ft scheme on a 40-acre site off Bolton Road in response to “significant regional demand” for employment space for small and medium-sized firms. 

Lovell Together, the joint venture between housebuilders Lovell Partnerships and Together Housing, is to receive approval for 127 homes as part of the regeneration of Pendleton, while the city council also prepares to sign off English Cities Fund's £2.5bn Salford Crescent masterplan. 

Developer Landmark Property Group has submitted plans for a 4,000 sq ft Co-op store with eight two-bedroom apartments fronting Wilmslow Road.

The listed developer's plans to turn the Oldham County Court building into apartments are expected to be given the green light next week.
