BBC shortlists northern sites

By Press Gazette

The BBC has shortlisted Quays Point at
Salford Quays and Central Spine in
Manchester as part of its plans to create
a ‘media zone’when it relocates
departments from London to Greater
Manchester in 2010.
The departments due to be moved
include BBC Sport, BBC New Media
and radio stations Five Live and Five
Live Sports Extra.
The BBC’s director of nations and
regions, Pat Loughrey, will put forward a
recommendation for a preferred site to
the BBC’s executive and board of
governors by the summer.
