Metrolink is racing to restore full tram services before thousands of music fans are set to travel home from tonight's Parklife festival. Football fans attending tonight's Soccer Aid game at Old Trafford are also set to face disruption.
Damage to an overhead line has caused chaos on the Metrolink system, on one of the busiest weekends of the year. The Bury line, which will be used by those attending Parklife, is currently suspended.
Replacement buses have been arranged for those travelling from Victoria to Heaton Park for the festival. The Ashton line had been impacted but is now operating as normal.
