While it may be doom and gloom in many regional property markets around the UK, the signs for various regions on the outskirts of Manchester are looking a little rosier today. The government has announced plans to increase the scope of the City’s tram system and extend the service to Chorlton, Rochdale and Oldham. This is on top of the Droylsden extension which has already been approved with funding confirmed.
