Transport chief says sorry for travel problems

Vernon Everitt, Greater Manchester's Transport Commissioner, said authorities are looking to re-extend the operating hours of the tram network, which were cut by the Covid-19 pandemic.

He also urged Keolis-Amey, the firm which runs Metrolink, and trade unions to reach a deal to prevent scheduled strikes from going ahead this weekend.

Mr Everitt made his comments as he and Dame Sarah Storey, the city-region's Active Travel Commissioner, launched an ambition to eliminate deaths and serious injuries on the roads by 2040.
