Greater Manchester invites public feedback on Atom Valley employment initiative
The public has been asked for its views on the proposed Atom Valley scheme, which is set to create more than 20,000 jobs in Greater Manchester.
When complete, it will be the area's biggest employment development and is expected to boost the local economy by £570m, according to the Northern Gateway Development Vehicle (NGDV), who are behind the plan.
The project has been nicknamed "Atom Valley" due to its focus on boosting scientific research and development.
The hub, which will host innovation and commercial firms, will be near the M60, M62 and M66 motorways on the Bury and Rochdale border.
