BURY'S tramline will be closed on Sunday and reduced on Saturday. 

Improvement works being carried out by Metrolink will mean changes to services across the tram network, including the Bury line. 

The work being carried out this weekend is part of a £44 million Metrolink improvement package. 

Replacement buses will be running along the affected routes and tickets should be bought at the tram ticket machines or or via the get me there app before boarding. 

On Saturday Bury to Abraham Moss will be running as normal but a replacement bus service will be in place from Crumpsall to Piccadilly. 

On Sunday the Bury line will be closed and a replacement bus service running from Bury to Piccadilly and from Central Park to Deansgate-Castlefield.
