Traffic is down on pre-pandemic numbers... but some routes are still very busy
YOU’VE got to have the patience of a saint to drive in Manchester sometimes. Gridlock on Mancunian Way, tailbacks on Princess Road, and a standstill on Great Ancoats Street are all common sights for commuters.
This traffic is one reason why authorities are trying to get more people on to public transport, by increasing the frequency of trams, cutting bus fares to £2, or making hundreds of bee bikes available for hire.
The latest data from the Department for Transport (DfT) suggests that traffic is still way down on pre-pandemic levels.
The statistics for 2021 in Manchester show there were 1.485 billion vehicles on the road, compared to 1.69 billion in 2019.
