Middleton Bus Station

Middleton bus station is due to close for five weeks from 4 February for resurfacing work to be completed.

It means bus services will be temporarily moved to different stands at Assheton Way, Long Street and Middleton Way for the duration of the works.

A full list of displaced services can be found below and on the TfGM web site.

Howard Hartley, Head of Facilities at Transport for Greater Manchester said: “With buses in the area due to come under local control from March, these resurfacing works are essential to ensure the continued efficient and safe operation of Middleton Bus Station and the running of Bee Network services for many years to come.

“We are working to ensure that the short-term impact of these works on passengers will be minimal, and we would like to thank in advance anyone affected for their cooperation and support.”
