Printworks, Manchester

Fun for all the family

Multi-storey car park and mobility hub - The Shudehill interchange

Originally a newspaper business, the iconic Printworks building is now an urban leisure and entertainment venue. With cinemas, restaurants and a variety of clubs, including some of the most popular nightclubs in Manchester—the Printworks has something for everyone.

Connectivity, comfortably delivered

The Printworks car park is a great example of a mobility hub—just a short walk from the city centre and the UK’s 2nd largest shopping centre—it provides bright, secure parking that is also well-positioned to provide onward access to the municipal bus and tramlines, whilst keeping the centre emission-free.

Given the mix of amenities available, the site benefits from high levels of footfall—night and day. Such sustainable cash flow provides the operator with the opportunity to provide a full range of services—including EV charging, meeting facilities, and food and drink kiosks—to continually improve the visitor experience.

“The great accessibility by car and the perfect spot at the edge of the city centre makes the Printworks Parking the ideal multi storey carpark to roll out a wide range of urban mobility services in addition to parking resulting in delivering real value to the local community. The smooth collaboration with Orange IM helps us in achieving both financial and ESG goals.”
