Greater Manchester Combined Authority

Mayor Andy Burnham and local leaders have agreed on plans to achieve carbon neutrality in Greater Manchester by 2038.

Housing secretary Sajid Javid has announced that £300 million is to be shared between Greater Manchester, the West of England, and Oxfordshire to deliver ‘thousands of much-needed’ new homes.

The second draft of the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework (GMSF) won’t be developed until the new year and then published in June 2018, the Greater Manchester Combined Authority has announced.

The newly published Greater Manchester Spatial Framework (GMSF) identifies sites for 227,000 homes, some of which have been allocated to green belt land.
