The second phase of the Bee Network was made official this morning in Oldham
Yellow buses will now be seen buzzing through Oldham, Rochdale, Salford, Bury and north Manchester following the launch of the Bee Network’s second phase.
“We are really proud of the team as they’ve done a phenomenal job over the weekend and we’re grateful to our partners. He highlighted that anyone left out of pocket by the change to Tranche 2 will be able to apply for the compensation scheme. At the launch, a bus user interrupted the speeches asking why her service was over 30 minutes delayed - which later turned out to be due to the breakdown of a 409 bus, rather than a systematic fault, according to Mr Burnham’s team.
For Oldham the key benefit of this comes in the form of better bus stock, according to council leader Arooj Shah. She explained that Oldham’s bus stock had become old and tired and was overdue this public transport improvement. The town hall boss added that these buses will help bring people from residential to key areas where they already have public transport infrastructure, such as the tram network. Greater frequency for “less profitable” routes that go from more residential areas is something that Rochdale’s council leader Neil Emmott is thrilled about - given his borough has some particularly rural spots.
From April 7, five buses will be added to the V1/V2, 163, and 472/474 services and from 28 April a further 15 will be added to the 8, 10, 20/21/22, 501, 524, 575/576, 601-606, 607, 608/35, and 609 services. The changes will initially be on a 12-month trial basis, during which punctuality improvements and associated patronage/revenue growth will be monitored, measured and evaluated to inform a decision as to whether the arrangement is extended.
