BUS operators in Greater Manchester will be summoned to attend a ‘safety summit’ after at least 17 people were taken to hospital following a crash involving two doubledeckers.
Transport for Greater Manchester, meanwhile, has confirmed it has asked the operator responsible for running the buses involved, understood to be Stagecoach, to carry out an ‘urgent investigation’ to determine what exactly happened.
Thankfully, no one was seriously injured in Saturday’s horrific smash in north Manchester.
Greater Manchester Police are said to be continuing to investigate the crash near the junction of Rochdale Road and Livesey Street, on the edge of Manchester city centre.
