No Manchester Metrolink services will be able to run through Victoria for four days starting on Thursday 8th July to allow urgent utility repairs to be undertaken by Electricity North West. This is all to do with the fire at Balloon Street which saw a disruption to services last month and comes after an investigation between TfGM and Electricity North West into the cause of the fire.
With the line through Victoria closed that means that there will have to be a revised service running between Thursday 8th and Sunday 11th July, affecting most services. During this time the following service will run:
