Transport bosses in Greater Manchester are considering creating a new tram stop north of Victoria Station to serve a major new development of thousands of homes.
The Sandhills stop in Collyhurst is at the centre of plans for 15,000 new homes set to be built over the next two decades as part of the Victoria North project. The stop would be on the Bury, Rochdale and Oldham Metrolink lines.
As the Manchester Evening News reported this week, the Victoria North scheme could see as many as 35,000 people living in developments stretching from Angel Meadow, just north of the city centre, to Collyhurst.
