Surf and ride with free wi-fi on trams

FREE wi-fi is now available on all Metrolink trams

The £1.7 million scheme covers all 96 trams, which join the 20 buses running the free city centre Metroshuttle service. The move is part of a £7.25m scheme run by Manchester City Council, Salford City Council and Transport for Greater Manchester with government money

Councillor Andrew Fender, chairman of the TfGM committee, said: “Metrolink is now the first light railway in England to become fully wi-fi capable.”
