Manchester and Salford Inner Relief Route, the ring road in Greater Manchester – the product of the amalgamation of several major roads around the city centres of Manchester and Salford to form a ring – was completed with the opening of a final extension between the Mancunian Way near the Granada Studios and the end of Trinity Way at Salford Central railway station. A major component of the ring road is the Mancunian Way motorway to the south of Manchester city centre. When it was built, it was planned to be the first of many such inner-city elevated roads. The road is a pivotal part of the ring road for east-west traffic across the southern part of the city centre. The principal section of Trinity Way opened in 1987 easing congestion on Deansgate and opening a route north-west of the city centre. Improvements were made to Great Ancoats Street, north-east of the city centre, making it mostly dual carriageway.
