The first look at a masterplan for how Hyde could be rejuvenated over the next two decades has been revealed.
A four week public consultation will launch in May to get people’s views on the new vision for Hyde town centre, which aims at ‘unlocking’ its ‘comprehensive redevelopment’. The programme is envisioned to take 15 to 20 years, with both short and long-term goals being set by the local authority.
The draft proposals aim to make Hyde a ‘desirable place to live, socialise and shop’ and a ‘thriving hub for daily urban life’, reversing a decline in its ‘viability and vitality’. Once adopted it will act as a ‘material consideration’ as part of any planning applications that are submitted in the area in the future.
“Cultural resurgence is at the heart of the masterplan and this will define the area’s future reinforcing its distinctive character, allowing Hyde to flourish and find its own identity within the context of Greater Manchester and the North West,” a cabinet report states.

The re-imagined shopping area is aimed at creating a welcoming shopping and residential area, with wide tree lined streets connecting all areas of the town centre.
