  • Metrolink @25
    Metrolink @25 A special review in association with Metrolink is just one sign of Manchester's ambitions of becoming a world-class city. The Beetham Tower, completed in 2016, is another; it is currently the tallest building outside the UK capital. This special celebration of 25 years of Manchester Metrolink is produced in association with Tramways & Urban Transit © 2017 Contributors: Tony Streeter, Neil Pulling Design: Debbie Nolan Production: Lanna Blyth Commercial: Geoff Butler TAUT Editor: Simon Johnston All images by Neil Pulling unless otherwise stated. Grateful thanks are due to the staff of Manchester Metrolink and Transport for Greater Manchester, past and present, in particular: Chris Allen, Mike Anderson, Graham Barrow, Chris Coleman, Marie Daly, Michael Del Rosso, Councillor Andrew Fender, Aline Frantzen, Steve Johnston, Dr Jon Lamonte, Gary Scanlon, Graham Thornton, Danny Vaughan and Tony Young. Metrolink @25 We’ve come a long way… t is hard to believe that it has been more than 25 years since the first Metrolink service left the Queen’s I Road depot back in 1992. The network’s journey from humble beginnings to the largest light rail system in the UK is certainly a remarkable one. The phenomenal GBP1.5bn (EUR1.7bn) expansion programme completed earlier in 2017 has been one of the largest and most ambitious transport projects ever to be delivered in the UK. We now have a system that spans over 97km (60 miles), boasts 120 trams and serves 93 stops at key destinations across the city region. The distinctive yellow Councillor Andrew Fender, Chair of the Transport for Greater trams are one of Greater Manchester’s most recognisable Manchester Committee.

Services from Ashton-under-Lyne will terminate at Deansgate-Castlefield. Other tram services will run as usual. What alternative travel options will be available? During the works there will be a full bus replacement operating including additional services during peak times. Full information on these will be advertised closer to the time. Will first and last services change during the works? No, where replacement bus services are running these will operate to the same timetable as trams for first and last services. How will the works be communicated to customers?
