Yes, long overdue to show some love to this once vibrant town. A good variety of independent shops is needed, and nice places to eat like the Bevano Lounge and Lily's wine bar in Urmston. Retain the history of Church Street. Don't waste this chance to say what you would like the future town to be.
Youve turned all the car park spots behind greggs into disable'd parking, its hardley ever used by blue badge holders !!!Not to mention its proper dodgy and dark, spots are so tight not fit for someone who may require wheelchair. Well done salford council just made the town centre even more quite
You have to do what the retailers and market traders were begging you to do years ago...affordable rent and rates! None of us small businesses had a chance because the rents were too high and instead of filling the shops with local, small businesses at lower rates, they were left empty. The "new market" was awful and left to rot like a lot of the shops. If this is for the people then give the empty units to the people and not just the same old big high street stores.
Only Eccles precinct, can make Salford Precinct look good. I went to Sale precinct today, some great small businesses, good variety of independent food outlets, excellent renovation into smaller stores.
All the money went into Salford at the expense of eccles Patricroft irlam and cadishead..why has the trams stopped at eccles why not continue to cadishead
Nevermind, "Welcome to Eccles". The place is a crackden and full of people that run off heroin. The only just about normal person you'll see are the drunk men from the pub facing the tram stop.
Funny how the residents of Eccles have been complaining about the precinct since the early 2000's and nothing was done, now Eccles has private unaffordable apartments being built and the council suddenly find £4.15 million to buy the precinct. Dodgy Salford council again I suspect. Mike McCusker is the worst councillor Eccles has ever had, and we've had a few.
That was a pointless video. I live here and I couldn't tell you the last time I visited besides going to Morissons or post office. It's a horrible area, I'd never even want to go to at night
Remember when it was so busy!!!
My namesake town
@@SLE253 Sad that it's now a ghost town.
Eccles town centre died when you demolished the original markets and bus station
Yes Eccles market was great
I totally agree with you Eccles is (I hate to say it)but it’s dire

True!!!
A very apt and befitting narration
Stay safe everyone!!!

Eccles was also the name of a character portrayed by Spike Milligan on the Goon Show, popular on BBC radio in the 1950s. ;-)
It’s also my name
@@SLE253 Nice one ! Hopefully you can be proud of the place in the future too
Eccles town center is still empty
Council have destroyed Eccles
All the money went into Salford at the expense of eccles Patricroft irlam and cadishead..why has the trams stopped at eccles why not continue to cadishead
Yes, I live in Patricroft and take the bus instead of having to walk 15 mins to the Eccles tram stop
And all the new apartments you are building so you are doing up eccles for your own benefits
Yup
Who you kidding, you want to bump life long residents out and get all the rich snobs in ,
I complained about that to the council: all they want is to turn it into a wine bar Monton Road. They don't care about locals

Lots of useless words but no plans?

Do you not think that development may have brought the funding needed to enable this purchase?
I wouldn't trust salford labour council .Their must be something in for them
