As part of Transport for Greater Manchester's (TfGM) journey to the Bee Network they want residents of Greater Manchester to help them shape a travel network that’s easy to use, seamlessly integrated and sustainable.
The Bee Network is TfGM's vision for an integrated transport system which will join together buses, trams, cycling and walking by 2024, with rail incorporated by 2030, to transform how people travel in Greater Manchester. As part of TfGM's journey to the Bee Network they want to speak to the people of Greater Manchester, to ask your opinions, show you the direction in which they are heading and help build the network based on your wants and needs.
The engagement workshops will be held virtually. Each engagement workshop is themed around key development areas and each session will be delivered twice; one day time slot and one evening slot. To share your views and opinions across all topics, please book onto as many sessions as possible.
