Introduction 1.1 This appendix provides details of the baseline information that has informed the sustainability appraisal, and includes a summary of the data collected, comparator data sets, commentary and an indication of how the issue may evolve without intervention. 1.2 Data availability at the local level means that the various data sets can be presented by either old (pre 2003) or new (2003 onwards) ward boundaries. The two plans below show both the old and new ward boundaries for reference. Appendix 3 - Page 2 Salford Revised Draft Local Plan Sustainability Appraisal Appendix 3 Details of Baseline Information Appendix 3 - Page 3 Salford Revised Draft Local Plan Sustainability Appraisal Appendix 3 Details of Baseline Information Appendix 3 - Page 4 Salford Revised Draft Local Plan Sustainability Appraisal Appendix 3 Details of Baseline Information 2 Social 2A Population 2.1 There has been a very significant loss of population from the city over the last century, falling some 36% from the peak in 1921 to 2001. The population largely stabilised between 2001 and 2004, following which there has been continuing growth. Prospects look good for ongoing population increases with the Greater Manchester forecasting model suggesting that the population could reach 282,349 by 2036. 2.2 Migration data shows that the principal driver of this later population growth has been down to migration into the city from outside of the UK, providing a net increase of 21,946 people over the period 2002 and 2016. Over this same period Salford saw a net loss of 1,896 people to other parts of the UK. 2.3 Salford’s population is made up of a relatively high proportion of people aged 20 – 29, 17.3% compared with only 13.6% of the North West population and 13.7% of that of England. Lower proportions than the North West and England averages are seen at all ages over 45. 2.4 Population projections suggest that, like the rest of the country, Salford is likely to see an increase in the proportion of ‘older people’ and a decrease in the proportion of ‘working age’ population. Whilst these changes are relatively small compared with those seen at higher geographic levels, the city will still need to plan for the increasing number of older people residing in the city. 2.5 In terms of the household composition, census data from 2011 indicates that the city has relatively large proportions of one person (36.14% compared with 32.2% for the North West and 30.3% for England) and single-parent households (13.5% compared with 12.0% for the North West and 10.6% for England). The 2012 DCLG household projections suggest that the proportion of one person households is likely to remain relatively static and projects that 35.9% of all households in Salford and 31.1% of all households in England will be one person households in 2037. 2.6 The proportion of minority ethnic population within Salford (15.6%) is higher than the North West (12.9%) average. The proportion is however significantly below that for England (20.1%). Particular concentrations of minority ethnic population are found in Eccles, Broughton, Irwell Riverside, Langworthy, Kersal, Ordsall and Weaste. 2.7 The Local Plan should take account of the above trends, catering for an increasing population and addressing the needs of a changing population, in terms of age, structure, ethnic diversity and household size.

  • Electoral Review of Salford City Council
    Electoral review of Salford City Council Response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on Warding Patterns August 2018 1 1 Executive Summary 1.1 Salford in 2018 has changed dramatically since the city’s previous electoral review of 2002. Salford has seen a turnaround in its fortunes over recent years, reversing decades of population decline and securing high levels of investment. The city is now delivering high levels of growth, in both new housing and new jobs, and is helping to drive forward both Salford’s and the Greater Manchester economies. 1.2 The election of the Greater Manchester Mayor and increased devolution of responsibilities to Greater Manchester, and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, is fundamentally changing the way Salford City Council works in areas of economic development, transport, work and skills, planning, policing and more recently health and social care. 1.3 Salford’s directly elected City Mayor has galvanised the city around eight core priorities – the Great Eight. Delivering against these core priorities will require the sustained commitment and partnership between councillors, partners in the private, public, community and voluntary and social enterprise sectors, and the city’s residents. This is even more the case in the light of ongoing national policy changes, the impending departure of the UK from the EU, and continued austerity in funding for vital local services. The city’s councillors will have an absolutely central role in delivering against these core priorities, working with all our partners and residents to harness the energies and talents of all of the city.

WARD: Irwell Riverside Description of Site and Surrounding Area The application site is known as Phase 3 of the Keepmoat Charlestown Riverside development, which measures 5.78 hectares. The northern boundary of the site runs along the southern bank of the River Irwell opposite the Lower Kersal Playing fields and Salford Sports Village and is bounded to the east by Phase 1 and 2 of the wider Charlestown residential development. To the west, the boundary moves in to exclude the 1960s/70s Auckland Drive housing estate before looping round a triangular section of land bounded by Langley Road South and Whit Lane and then returning to the river bank. Most of the site currently comprises vacant land and open space. Historically the site underwent a clearance exercise where several roads of back-to-back terraced housing, a school, some small industrial sites and former open space have been removed. Structures that do remain are in a poor state of repair. As outlined above, the site forms part of a larger site for which planning permission (Ref. 15/67254/EIAHYB) was granted in March 2016 for development as follows: $ymppt04v.docx “Hybrid planning application comprising: Full Planning Application for the erection of 267 dwellings with associated landscaping, access arrangements and car parking (Phase 1 and 2).

  • Former Castle Irwell Student Village, Cromwell Road, Salford, M6 6DB
    APPLICATION No: 20/75047/REM APPLICANT: Castle Irwell Limited LOCATION: Former Castle Irwell Student Village, Cromwell Road, Salford, M6 6DB. PROPOSAL: Details of reserved matters (appearance, landscaping, layout and scale) pursuant to outline planning permission 18/71890/OUTEIA for Phase One of the development comprising of 157 residential dwellings with public open space, landscaping, boundary treatments and associated infrastructure. WARD: Irwell Riverside Description of Site and Surrounding Area This application relates to phase one of the former Castle Irwell student village site, which is situated to the northern side of Cromwell Road (see figure 1 below). Phase one (as indicated by the red line boundary within figure 1) measures 15.05 acres (6.09 hectares), which, in terms of area, is 42% of the whole site (the remainder if which is indicated by the blue line within figure 1). The site is irregular in shape and extends northward alongside the River Irwell and, to the west, along Littleton Road. Though the site is currently vacant, as previously indicated, the site was recently used as a student village by the University of Salford and was a racecourse prior to that. The racecourse use ceased in 1963 and in 1973 The University of Salford acquired the site and subsequently constructed several student accommodation buildings. These buildings were occupied up until 2015. In 2016 a remnant racecourse stand was damaged by fire and subsequently demolished along with the vacant student accommodation buildings. The locally listed former turnstiles building is situated within the wider site, occupying the south-eastern corner. A historic brick wall encloses the site along both the Cromwell Road and Littleton Road frontages.
