Author: The Daily News Now! April 23, 2026 Duration: 1:17

Metrolink trams will be out of service between Etihad Campus and Ashton-under-Lyne this weekend for essential track repairs. Replacement buses will operate, but Etihad Campus will be skipped. Passengers are advised to disembark at Holt Town or Velopark. Some route changes and closures are also in effect. Extra staff will guide passengers, and the Bee Network app will provide real-time updates. This is part of a £150 million upgrade project, with a temporary schedule in place. Smoother rides are expected in the future.
