Growth Area 8: Manningham
Manningham will become a reinvigorated neighbourhood as part of Bradford’s key north-south axis, integrating high-quality housing developments, improved employment spaces, and comprehensive upgrades to the public realm along all key corridors.
Manningham's significant architectural residential heritage will be foregrounded and celebrated, and value maximised through interventions to improve the public realm, also benefitting existing local businesses. Creating new and upgraded employment spaces will complement Bradford’s overall growth plans, providing higher-value employment spaces.
Manningham will become a place people want to visit and appreciate its architectural heritage and local culture.
