'We're being ignored over retail park plans'

CAMPAIGNERS say local people feel 'ignored once more' over plans for the future of part of Manchester city centre.

The former Central Retail Park off Great Ancoats Street is to be turned into a huge office complex with a green public space in the middle.

But some want the whole site located next to a primary school - to be turned into a park. It comes after local group Trees Not Cars quashed a council decision to temporarily use it as a car park in the courts.

Since then, under new leadership, the town hall has published new plans for the site where the former Toys R Us and Argos stores have been flattened. Campaigners have praised council leader Bev Craig for her 'dedication' to improving green spaces in the city centre.
