The Central Stockport Area Committee met on Thursday 31 July 2025 and approved several traffic regulation orders, including a one-way system on Gorsey Mount Street and 'no waiting at any time' restrictions on Old Chapel Street, Adelaide Road, Northgate Road, Chatham Street, Eldon Road, Alder Grove, and other associated streets. The committee also approved funding for community groups and improvements to lighting in Brinnington.
The committee considered a number of development applications, recommending approval for the expansion of Stockport County Football Club's stadium and granting planning permission for a large-scale residential and mixed-use development at Town Centre West, subject to conditions and legal agreements. They also recommended approval for elevational alterations and a change of use at 12 Buxton Road.
In other business, the committee received an update from Stockport Homes Group, noting a reduction in satisfaction levels and discussing the methodology behind satisfaction surveys. They also approved footway improvements on Buxton Road to enhance access to bus stops and noted a report on planning appeals and enforcement actions.
