Eccles: No trams will be running between Eccles and Media City for over three weeks. This starts on February 1 and goes until February 25, according to TfGM.
They’re doing some work at the Weaste tram stop, which is why the line will be closed. But don’t worry! There will be a bus replacement service for all the affected stops.
The bus will cover stops like Eccles, Ladywell, Weaste, Langworthy, Broadway, and Media City. You can use your tram tickets on these buses, so that’s a plus!
Normal tram services should be back on February 26. The replacement buses will pick you up right outside each affected stop.
Plus, there are frequent Bee Network bus services nearby, so you won’t be stranded. You can check out the details of the replacement bus services on the TfGM website.
For Monday to Thursday, the first bus leaves at 05:39 from Eccles to Media City. Buses will run every 12 minutes after that. The last bus is at 00:15 from Eccles.
On Fridays and Saturdays, the schedule is pretty much the same. The first bus is still at 05:39, and the last one leaves at 01:15.
On Sundays, the first bus starts at 06:42, and they’ll run every 15 minutes. The last bus is at 23:57 from Eccles.
