A 9.1 million roadworks scheme will begin on Great Ancoats Street tomorrow, making it a no go area for commuters who want to be on time for work.

The work, which starts in the morning (Monday 13th January), will take place between the Oldham Road junction all the way along Great Ancoats Street as far as the Metrolink stop at Pollard Street.

The scheme aims to 'improve the look and feel' of the Great Ancoats street area for pedestrians and will connect Manchester city centre with Ancoats and New Islington in a much more natural way.
