Even their houses tower over ours': The Racecourse estate is on the up - but we feel left behind
Demand for new housing shows little sign of slowing as Greater Manchester continues to grow. Sale’s Racecourse Estate is one place where new, affordable homes are being built and money is being poured in - but not everyone is happy with the changes.
Still, some feel “sidelined”. Residents complain that while money is being put into building new homes, and tenants' properties are being upgraded in phases, communal areas are neglected, roads and pavements are in disrepair and maintenance calls are not being responded to. “But it feels that they [Irwell Valley] have neglected the people that have been here for years. We feel like we’re being sidelined for this new project.”
“They are so excited to get their own bedroom, and they absolutely love being outdoors, so the garden is great – we’re really looking forward to a summer spent playing outside,” she said. On doctor’s orders, he recently managed a short walk around the estate with his son-in-law. He described what he saw as “shocking”.
In a statement Irwell Valley Chief Executive, Sasha Deepwell said: “By working with the people in the communities we serve, we can improve homes and enable people to live well in their home and community. "We are making good progress, with more than 500 new roofs installed and our kitchen replacement programme underway. The new central park is open, and we’ve resurfaced and reconfigured the car parks. We’re currently investigating issues with surface water and flooding in some walkways and ginnels too.
