Second city crossing tram launch approaching
Manchester’s new tram line is on track to open to passengers later this month, according to Transport for Greater Manchester. Subject to final testing and commissioning, the first passenger services will run on the new Second City Crossing on Sunday February 26.The new line will offer new links and more frequent trams through Manchester city centre, as well as improved service reliability and greater operational flexibility. This city crossing runs from a major new stop at St Peter’s Square along Cross Street to stops at Exchange Square and Victoria, and will allow more trams to run through the city centre and across the 93-stop network.The Second City Crossing is the final piece in Metrolink’s £1.5bn ‘big bang’ expansion programme.
