Gorton's six Lib Dem Councillors have welcomed the announcement of a preferred bidder for Gorton District centre. Lib Dem Leader and Gorton South Councillor Simon Ashley said today, "For years Gorton has been asking for a new District Centre- and finally this is in sight. What we would like now is the millions being paid to the Council for the site to be earmarked to improve the local area."
Gorton North Councillor Jackie Pearcey added, "Local people need to be consulted to make sure we get a District Centre we are proud of. Lets remember, this will take at least three years- we need to make sure the market and food hall stay competitive until the new development is built."
