Repair work means that no trams will operate through Deansgate-Castlefield this Sunday.

Maintenance will take place to rectify an issue with the tracks at the popular city centre tram stop. During the work, there will be no services through this part of the network.

This means that there will be disruption to Metrolink services throughout the day. Transport for Greater Manchester has announced a bus replacement service will be in place to limit disruption. The disruption to the network will be all day, with a full schedule for the bus replacement service published by TfGM. An amended service pattern for the Metrolink has also been confirmed, details for both can be found below.
