Irk River Valley

The Irk Valley stretches from Collyhurst to Higher Blackley, and across the City from Crumpsall to Moston.

Significant investment will result in major environmental improvements across a previously neglected landscape.

Working in partnership with local people and different agencies, the Irk Valley project aims to provide safe, comfortable countryside links that will provide long-term benefits for both people and wildlife.

Covering many square miles of open green space, the countryside could be nearer to your doorstep than you might think.
