Location

Bury Interchange is atransport hub in the town ofBury,Greater Manchester,England. Opened in 1980, it is the northern terminus of theManchester Metrolink'sBury Line, which prior to 1992 was a heavy-rail line. It also incorporates a bus station.

Bury Interchange was opened byBritish Rail as part of the then-axedPicc-Vic tunnel project in March 1980, integrating a newbus station with the northern terminus of the Bury-to-Manchester heavy railway line, a new short spur line was constructed to connect the new station. The railway had originally run intoBury Bolton Street which was further away from the town centre, and was closed by British Rail on the same day that Bury Interchange opened; Bury Bolton Street is now operated by the heritageEast Lancashire Railway. The railway was redeveloped in the early-1990s to become part of theManchester Metrolink network in 1992, forming the northern terminus.^[1] The interchange is managed byTransport for Greater Manchester and has recently been refurbished, improving facilities and security for passengers.^[2]

In March 2025 it was announced that the Bury Interchange redevelopment has been fast-tracked with £80 million to improve bus and tram connectivity across Greater Manchester.^[3]
