Rail Disruption: Greek Street Bridge Engineering Works

There are major engineering works taking place at the Greek Street Bridge which are likely to affect train travel to Manchester around the dates of our conference. These works may cause delays of up to an hour or 90 minutes for some journeys, especially on routes passing through the affected area. This may include bus transfers.

 

What you need to know:

- Check your journey well in advance and allow for extra time

- Visit National Rail’s engineering works update page for the latest details before setting off

- Consider alternative routes or earlier/later trains if possible to avoid the busiest affected periods

We’d encourage all delegates and speakers to factor in this extra travel time to help you arrive safely and stress-free.

 

General Travel Tips

- Arriving in Manchester the night before? There are plenty of local accommodation options and it might help reduce travel stress

- If driving, be aware of city centre parking availability and possible congestion
