A tweet from Granada Tv today: "Official TfGM stats shown exclusively to us show rail journey times in the north have barely changed since 1962. Chester-Manc is slower".You only have to spend a day in London and return to Manchester to see how poor transport is. I see another local bus is to be chopped soon from the Airport network (18), Apart from buses to Wythenshawe, hardly any left now.The Airport doesn't view this as a problem, when they keep pushing the car parking cash cow- even though they have nowhere left to park cars other than operational taxiways.
