Description
Objectives

The project consist of the extension of the Manchester Metrolink tram network with a 5.5-km new line from Pomona to the Trafford Centre with six new stops, and the purchase of ten additional tram vehicles.

This project will extend the metro network, reduce traffic congestion, improve travel times in the area and increase connectivity in Greater Manchester.

Environmental aspects
Procurement

The project is expected to have a positive environmental impact when in operation, as private car drivers will shift to public transport use.

Procurement has been completed according to the national law and procedures.
