The 10 Manchester developments set to get the green light next week

Thousands of flats, a 20-storey Hilton hotel and a Lidl supermarket are all set to get the green light in Manchester next week. Student accommodation for 1,762 rooms across three separate schemes are all tipped for approval, while plans for hundreds more residential apartments will also be put to a vote.

The developments due to be decided next week include residential towers up to 45-storeys and a 19-storey office block at the former city centre HMRC site and the creation of a new canalside neighbourhood in Ancoats worth £52m. The planning committee - which will meet on Thursday (June 1) - will also consider applications for homeless accommodation and a primary school.

A new Lidl store planned near a nightmare junction in Chorlton is also back on the agenda. Hundreds of objections have also been received about one of the student blocks planned next to a West Indian Community Centre in Ardwick.

Seven letters of objection have been received in relation to this application -
