Metrolink to / from Etihad

Not on the tram or in the vehicle according to the BBC who say she was a pedestrian. Makes you wonder doesn’t it?
The van rebounded off the tram and hit the girl. Those junctions off Moseley street have seen numerous incidents with cars/vans not giving way to oncoming trams and sadly it's now resulted in a death.

Yes it is scary round there, some drivers think that a Red light doesn’t apply to them.

Awful to read. To make it worse, the van driver got out of his van and ran away from the incident (don’t know if he’s been caught yet).

Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) bosses say they will ‘do everything we can to keep impacts of those works to a minimum’.

“We are trying to avoid key events where possible and we will [consider] putting alternative provision in place,” said Chris Barnes, TfGM’s network director for infrastructure, on Thursday (February 27).

So two 50000 plus events in those 2 weeks is them trying to avoid disruption???
 
Try their journey planner, it is rubbish.

Navigation road to Etihad, it sends you via Victoria which is fair enough. Press for the return journey and it has you walking from the Gardens to St. Peter’s Square which is bloody useless for anybody with walking difficulties.

It is about time that prat in the Mayors office got to grips with this organisation.

It gives the quickest route. If you press ‘add a stop’ and put in Via Victoria, it’ll give you the times for Etihad- Victoria- Navigation Road.
