Manchester traffic
The means of transportation used in Manchester are diverse. Manchester is very accessible and you will not have any traffic problems.
bus
There is a “shuttle bus” that runs through three routes in Manchester. Anyone can get on and off the area freely and use it free of charge. Buses are color-coded according to the patrol route so that you can see which bus you want to take immediately, so even travelers can get on with confidence. There are three colors of buses, orange, green and purple, and each has a different patrol area. The shuttle bus is free. Free buses run every 10 minutes on weekdays and every 12 minutes on weekends. When the shuttle bus you want to get on at the bus stop arrives, raise your hand and it will stop. It runs from 5am in the morning to past 23:00 in the evening. You can check the bus time and route on Google Maps.
Electric train
