Absolutely! I’ve used the Manchester Metrolink and it definitely slows down in the city centre. It does speed up a lot (and likely beats bus in rush hour) when you’re off the streets, which makes it an incredible commuter option!
- laurencerowe 1y agoMuch of it is built on repurposed heavy rail lines and those sections are great. The Eccles Line through Salford Quays is horribly slow and windy though which was a pain for commuting to Media City from south east Manchester. I believe the new Trafford line improves things somewhat but Manchester really needs much more heavy rail capacity.
