The iconic, 46-year-old precinct centre bridge over Oxford Road (see Image] ) has been taken down and the end of the precinct is being demolished prior to being reconfigured to create up to 14 units with glazed frontages onto Oxford Road. The link bridge was removed to improve views and increase light levels. The work is taking place as part of Manchester University’s £50m redevelopment of Manchester Business School. https://www.placenorthwest.co.uk/news/oxford-road-bridge-demolition-begins-next-week/#sthash.tdtcUzN6.dpuf
