Development of the Gateway centre will bring council, health and children’s services under one roof and transform the council’s former adult services building, Crompton House, which has lain empty for the last year because of spending cuts, the council said.
Kier will give the existing building a facelift with a three-storey glass frontage to create a new entrance. The rest of the building will be refurbished.
Kier is scheduled to complete the work before the end of the year.
The scheme is being funded by the Salford Primary Care Trust in partnership with the city council.
