A bus depot is set to install 155 charging points as the borough’s network moves towards being 100 per cent electric.
A huge investment is planned at the First Manchester Bus Depot on Weston Street, Bolton, ahead of an eventual requirement for all buses used in the town to be electric. Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) will launch the Bee Network in the borough on September 24, bringing back local authority control of the bus network for the first time since 1986.
Bee Network bus services will start running in the autumn on routes in Bolton, Wigan, and parts of Manchester, Salford and Bury. In the short term, bus routes and timetables will be similar to now.
