Now the square is a green, vibrant contemporary space where more than 50 semi-mature trees have been planted, including on the tram platform \u2013 a first for the tram network.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The new stop in St Peter\u2019s Square opened to the public last year, 26 August 2016, and the <strong>Second City Crossing<\/strong> opened at the end of February this year. The extension of the Metrolink network was part of the transformational Project Grow, which improved transport links across the city region.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In December 2016, a time capsule was buried in the Square, the contents of which will provide a snapshot of life in Manchester for future generations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Following a plaque unveiling to mark the new tram stop in January, the Second City Crossing opened officially on Sunday 26 February 2017.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Also in February, the St Peter\u2019s Square Cross was also rededicated in a ceremony led by the Bishop of Manchester, David Walker, celebrating the religious history of the site.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>St Peter\u2019s Square is now fully open to the public and will be home to a new public sculpture commemorating the life of Manchester suffragette, Emmeline Pankhurst.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sir Richard Leese<\/strong>,<strong> <\/strong>Leader of Manchester City Council<strong>,&nbsp;<\/strong>said:<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>\u201cThis water feature is the closing chapter to what has been a remarkable transformation of St Peter\u2019s Square, from a muddle and claustrophobic transport interchange into an enviable public space that can sit proudly amongst the renowned squares across the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn St Peter\u2019s we have somewhere in our city centre that the public can truly be proud of and a space that complements the architecture \u2013 both new and old \u2013 in the civic heart of Manchester.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Councillor Andrew Fender<\/strong>,<strong> <\/strong>Chair of the Transport for Greater Manchester Committee, said:<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>\u201cAs well as being one of Manchester\u2019s most important civic areas, St Peter\u2019s Square is home to one of Metrolink\u2019s busiest tram stops.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s fitting that we now have a completely transformed, bigger and better tram stop at the heart of the square, being used by more people than ever before.
