Manchester City Council wants to reduce the number of buses idling in the Piccadilly Gardens area.
A plan to reduce the number of buses idling near a popular city centre area has been unveiled by its council leader.
Launching the proposals, Bev Craig said the city needed to decide if the area was "our plaza or... our bus station", because at the moment, "it tries to do both and that doesn’t quite work". The re-regulation will mean regional transport bosses will have the say on fares, timetables and routes."We will be looking to change how buses currently use Piccadilly Gardens, but we will be doing that properly over a period of time," she said.
