Discover Salford
Salford is a city that sits directly beside Manchester across the River Irwell. Salford Quays and MediaCityUK, home to the BBC and ITV and a growing media and technology cluster, are the best known parts, with the Lowry arts centre beside the water. Salford Central and the Chapel Street area are seeing high density residential development, while Eccles, Swinton and Irlam provide established suburban centres. The University of Salford is also based in the city. The Metrolink tram network and mainline rail connect Salford with central Manchester, and the M60 and M602 give strong road links. People need to be here for media work, construction and development, study and events. Whatever your plans, WJO Property sources fully furnished accommodation around Salford through one point of contact.
