Mancunians discuss the night bus trial going ahead in Manchester this year
  • last month
A night bus trial is going ahead later this year and Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham has said he hopes hourly all-night services on certain city-region bus routes will go ahead by the end of summer.

One hundred and thirty five thousand people in Salford, Wigan and Bolton who live within a quarter of a mile of a V1 or 36 stop will be able to get to and from the city centre at all hours of the day.

The trial is to focus primarily on supporting people working in Manchester's nighttime economy, serving areas with high numbers of people less likely to own a car and more likely to use public transport.

We asked people on the streets of Manchester what they think about night buses returning to Greater Manchester.
