After years of stagnation, Ordsall’s long-idle plot between Robert Hall Street and West Park Street is finally getting a major housing boost. Salford Council has approved a £40 million deal with Seddon Construction to build 144 affordable homes — part of a larger 274-home plan approved in 2023. The project, delayed by costly land issues and net-zero standards, now moves forward with funding from council funds, Homes England, GMCA, and the Brownfield Land Release fund. Construction kicks off this autumn, aiming for completion in three years. Of the 144 units, 112 will be managed by Dérive, the council-owned housing provider currently under scrutiny — but for now, the focus remains on delivering desperately needed homes to the community.
