FIRST, GO NORTH WEST & DIAMOND BUS TO END TICKET TRANSITION SCHEME ON JANUARY 1ST 2020

Over the summer there were a number of ownership changes within the bus network in Northern areas of Greater Manchester, many of which affect Salford

To make sure these changes passed smoothly for customers, a temporary arrangement was put in place for tickets issued by First, Go North West and Diamond Bus to be accepted on each company’s buses.

Now that each company’s network of services in North Manchester is clearly established, the bus companies say that there is no longer a need for this temporary arrangement to continue.

As such, with effect from 1 January 2020, each individual operator’s tickets will only be valid on that operator’s buses.

Customers are being advised to check that they have the correct tickets for the services they use.

For those customers who wish to use more than one operator’s services, there is a full range of great value tickets available through System One which are valid on all bus services in Greater Manchester.
