Future Bradford

Great changes are afoot in Bradford with the city gaining a new confidence and looking forward to an exciting future.

The Bradford 2020 vision plans to give the city a character that few others can match. The city park will provide a unique setting that binds together the city centre. The green space and tranquil lake will give Bradfordians somewhere to cool off in the heat of the day or relax at the weekend, and also create more space for the stunning City Hall to show off its beautifully crafted stonework frontage. It creates one landscape with many views and makes Bradford different from the rest. Such bold and forward-looking developments will provide an exciting and stimulating environment for those who live, work and study here for years to come.

Our students say . . .

"I think Bradford is how Leeds used to be. Like a coiled spring about to explode - it's so vibrant and cosmopolitan. I don't think most people are aware of what Bradford has to offer."
