Mayor Andy Burnham 'careful' about commitments as post-pandemic vision set out

Andy Burnham says he has been 'careful' about the commitments he has made after setting out his post-pandemic vision for Greater Manchester.

The mayor made a series of announcements in Manchester city centre today (March 14) including that bus fares would be capped to £2 for adults and £1 for children under a new system which is set to be rolled out from Autumn 2023.

It comes after an historic legal ruling last week which allows the city-region to be the first outside of London to take control of its bus services for decades.
