Manchester
— Growth since 2001 > than within E&W (8% vs. 7.5%)

— Oldham (1.9%) and Stockport (0.8%) are ranked
amongst the lowest growth rates nationally

AHS highest in Oldham and lowest in Salford
— Rapid growth in communal living establishments in

Part 2:
Policy Implications
Policy implications
— Population losses of the ‘70s and ‘80s have been
reversed – shows the value of developing high value
economic activity
— Conurbation core is driving population growth – will
create further demand for housing and employment
in the core but need to get the balance right
— Slower growth in the wider conurbation – how do we
better exploit the potential of rest of GM to host
population growth?
Policy implications (2)
— Health:
— Greater demand for services, particularly from the young
and from the elderly, leading to cost pressures
— How do we align health plans and infrastructure of
‘relatively young’ and ‘relatively old’ GM boroughs
— Education:
— Rising demand for nursery and primary school places
— In years to come these pressures will apply to secondary
schools, colleges and universities - but not necessarily in
the same locations?
— Need to plan provision within context of growing school
independence
Policy implications (3)
— Transport:
— How important is transport to population growth?
Stockport vs. Wigan, growing concentration in conurbation
core
— Metrolink expansion to Rochdale, Oldham and Tameside –
will this arrest trend towards conurbation core?
— Link GM to other areas – by road, rail, air
— Housing:
— Low build rates at a time of increasing births, high
migration and falling household sizes
— More land and incentives needed to get the right units built
in the right areas
