Metrolink Second City Crossing Opens Sunday
by prestwichfocus on 21 February, 2017
Services are due to start running on the ‘second city crossing’ in Manchester from Sunday 26 February 2017, with a new network map for Metrolink services.
Bury line services remain (what they always were) Bury-Altrincham and Bury-Piccadilly, and all our trams will use the existing route through Shudehill and Market Street.

Services will be:
Altrincham – Bury (via Market Street)
Altrincham – Etihad Campus
Bury – Piccadilly
Ashton-under-Lyne – Eccles
MediaCityUK – Piccadilly
Manchester Airport – Deansgate-Castlefield
East Didsbury – Rochdale Town Centre (via Exchange Square)
East Didsbury – Shaw and Crompton (via Exchange Square)
Surely, it would make more sense to route the Altrincham-Bury via Exchange Square or is the diagram not representative of the route lengths?
I can’t see the benefit of all that disruption for people travelling on the line from Bury to Altrincham or Piccadilly.
They could have invested this money in turnstiles for each metro station to keep the fare dodging, anti-social people off the metro.
