Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) has announced that a new all electric Bee Network service is now live in Salford.
Launched on 4 January, the new 30 service is now operating from the Trafford Centre through Trafford Park, to MediaCity, along Ordsall Lane and to the City Centre.
The new 30 service is the fourth new Bee Network service, after the 629 Golborne to Platt Bridge, 615 Wigan to Middlebrook Retail Park service and the 631 Wigan to Standish.
Salford City mayor, Paul Dennett, said: “It is excellent news that the number 30 bus service has now begun operating in Salford — a positive start to 2026.
“This new route will significantly improve sustainable travel options for residents in Ordsall, providing better connections to employment, education, and leisure opportunities across the city.
“A considerable amount of work has gone into securing developer funding to bring this service to life, and its launch demonstrates our ongoing commitment to enhancing connectivity and ensuring accessible, reliable public transport for all.”
