Lloyd Street Bus Corridor - Consultation

There are current plans to make Lloyd Street into a priority bus corridor for routes into and out of the city centre. Although the timescale for this is pretty long, local consultation meetings are happening now so that residents can have their views taken into account.

Further details are on the Transport for Greater Manchester website.

Consultation meetings are taking place as follows:

  • 17th September 2-7pm Greenheys Adult Eucation centre
  • 24th September 2-7pm The Deaf Centre
 Don't miss a chance to have your say!
