Trafford offers up £175m Stretford Mall build contract

Contractors have been invited to bid for the chance to build 630 homes as part of efforts to regenerate the town centre.

Split across three phases, the resi-led regeneration of Stretford will see much of the town’s mall demolished.

A £60m contract for the first phase of 249 homes is up for grabs. This could be extended to capture phases two and three, which are valued at £45m and £55m – £70m respectively.

Together, the opportunity would amount to up to £175m worth of contracts for the successful bidder.

Trafford Council and JV partner Bruntwood unveiled plans for the first phase in November.

Work on this tranche of homes, which includes a nine-storey element that falls within the BSA’s high risk category, is expected to begin in June 2027.

The scheme was designed by AHR Architects and is in line to be backed by the £1bn Greater Manchester Good Growth Fund.

Phase one would be followed by 178 affordable homes in phase two and another 204 in phase three, according to tender documents.

The deadline for tender submissions is 12 January and an award is scheduled for March.

The council and Bruntwood were contacted for comment.
