To improve departure from Connell after the game the lights on Turring Way need to be re-sequenced. At the present buses turning left are delayed because traffic turning right is given priority, a simple change would make a significant difference.
Its the only reason I dont use this service more often.To improve departure from Connell after the game the lights on Turring Way need to be re-sequenced.

Hello, due to recent industrial action at TfGM, we have been unable to carry out traffic signal interventions on matchdays. I am pleased to say the dispute has now been resolved and I’m hopeful these issues will no longer occur. Please let me know if you experience any further problems.To improve departure from Connell after the game the lights on Turing Way need to be re-sequenced.

Hello, I am putting it down to the strike action that has been going on for a number of months. Tomorrow will be the first fixture since its been resolved so keep me posted on your experience and if you are facing the same issues I will have a chat with the traffic signal engineers to see what more can be done.I agree!
It usually takes a good 25 minutes just to turn left onto Alan Turing Way. We’re talking a distance of about 30 metres.
If the traffic light priority was changed even slightly, then it would be to the benefit of all the matchday buses leaving Connell College.
All of them would arrive at their destinations 25 minutes earlier.
Can this be escalated to anyone - @matchdaybus? Thanks for all of your effort with the service, it’s very much appreciated.
Not sure where you get your info from but this was over 30 minutes late and half of the people waiting had already left .MC6 is running 10 minutes late due to congestion. Apologies for the delay
Hello, at the time I posted I noticed it was stuck on the tracker so I called the operator and was told 10 minutes delay, I did ask to be kept informed of futher delays and the operator didn’t update me until the bus was close to the stadium, this is why I didn’t update again as all fans had boarded at this point so would have been aware of the delays. Apologies for this.Not sure where you get your info from but this was over 30 minutes late and half of the people waiting had already left .
The tracker just showed it stationary in Hazel Grove which didnt help.
This was much better yesterday. Lights stayed on green for a good while & several buses got throughI agree!

Thanks for flagging, I’ll get it updated now.@matchdaybus
Just a heads up that there are no details for the mc06 bus on Saturday on the website.
The 11 starts in Tyldesley, much closer to Leigh.Is their any scope for extending the route for the bus that starts on the east Lancs near ellenbrook to start from Leigh. Would save getting stuck in traffic on a regular basis. Only other option is bus & tram and can take forever and a day.
