I decided to walk around the area the council is/will be developing.

You guys the new Melling train station will be so nice. It's always been awkward how there's not a train station very near city centre. The new station will be a lot nearer. There will be a new pedestrian bridge from the station over the river. Once over the river, you're on Margaret Street, which puts you right in city centre. Two blocks to Neko Ngeru Cat Cafe. Three blocks to Queensgate mall.
