The Northern Gateway - Heywood and Pilsworth is land located between junctions 18 and 19 of the M62 motorway. We want to develop this land to provide:
- Investment
- Jobs
- Homes
- Community benefits
- Better travel connections for residents and businesses
This land is one of the sites included in the Places for Everyone plan.

The NGDF includes:
