EXPLAINED: More disruption on eccles metrolink line after vehicle sheds its load | Rare Historical Photos

There’s disruption on the Eccles Metrolink line this morning — on the first day it's supposed to reopen.

Engineering works had been carried out from early April to yesterday (April 29) on the Eccles line, suspending part of the line from Eccles to MediaCity. However, passengers are facing more woes on Saturday, too.

That’s because a ‘road vehicle’ had shed its load in Eccles, which has meant there are delays in reopening the line fully. Tram users can board buses in Salford to get around the disruption.
