Comment: an integrated transport plan

Anonymous silhouette of author

The directly elected mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham, has launched a bid to control rail services in the conurbation, as part of an integrated transport plan which includes the franchised Bee bus network.

The proposal, which in principle has the backing of the Department for Transport and Network Rail, will see services managed on eight routes serving 64 stations by 2028, with a further 32 stations added by 2030.
