Manchester - Getting Around
Public Transport
The main bus station is at the recently redeveloped Piccadilly Gardens, slightly to the east of the city centre. Free Metroshuttle services operate along three circular routes in the city, linking the main attractions as well as the city’s four railway stations. Pedestrians should also keep an eye out for the trams that operate through the city centre with services out to Bury in the north, Altrincham in the south and Salford Quays (close to Old Trafford cricket and football grounds) and Eccles in the west.
Night services operate along the main routes on Friday and Saturday nights. Day Tickets and Travelcards allowing unlimited bus and rail travel for seven days, a month or a year are also available from GMPTE.
