Manchester’s Housing Future Decided | Manchester News

Manchester is set for a massive housing boom with up to 60,000 new homes planned to fuel economic growth and help hit its zero-carbon city goal by 2038. The core growth area—centered around key transport hubs and zones like Sportcity and Holt Town—will see over 42,000 homes, while other neighborhoods including Strangeways, Wythenshawe, and near the airport also feature in the plan. The final draft of the local plan, shaped by public feedback, is now undergoing independent review and will be adopted by summer 2027—but residents still have until September 28 to weigh in. Council leaders stress that this expansion must deliver affordable, high-quality housing and align with broader goals like building 36,000 homes by 2032, including a strong focus on social and affordable units.
