The Bee Network


The Bee Network is our vision for a joined-up travel network that works for everyone.

Making it easier for you to get around: by bus, tram, train, walking, wheeling or cycling.

How are we doing this?

  • From 5 January 2025, all bus services in Greater Manchester will be part of the Bee Network.
  • We’re making it easier to walk, wheel and cycle by building the country’s largest active travel network.
  • We’re connecting every area and community in Greater Manchester with 1,800 miles of safe routes and 2,400 new crossings.
  • We’re also working to bring eight local commuter train services into the Bee Network by 2028.

So in future, the Bee Network will be your one-stop-shop for all your local journeys, making it easier and cheaper to get around.
