The new deal that could transform six Greater Manchester train stations
A new deal which could lead to big changes at six Greater Manchester train stations has been agreed. Local and national transport bodies have joined forces to come up with a plan for the stations in Manchester and Salford.
Earlier this year, the government agreed to give the region more influence over local rail services in a new devolution deal which committed to 'better integrate' them with Greater Manchester's London-style Bee Network. This means passengers would be able to tap-in and tap-out to pay for local trains.
The two organisations will work with key stakeholders and future partners on proposals affecting six stations: Manchester Piccadilly, Manchester Victoria, Manchester Oxford Road, Deansgate, Salford Central and Salford Crescent. They will focus on transport upgrades that will help the city-region meet the demands of future population growth and support the regional economy.
