Getting the tram at Bury

Bury is the end of the line for Blue Line and Green Line: trams terminate here and start back the other way. It is about 36 minutes from St Peter's Square in the city centre on the Green Line, and 13.0 km away on the ground. On the Blue Line it is stop 1 of 27. On the Green Line it is stop 1 of 25. On a Sunday the Green Line does not run, so the service here is thinner than the rest of the week.

Questions about Bury

Yes, for Blue Line and Green Line. Trams terminate here, wait and set off again, so you can always get a seat in the other direction.

05:52, Monday to Thursday. Saturday and Sunday both start later; the table above has each day.

The last one leaves at 00:32, after midnight — it still counts as the previous day’s service, which is why timetables write it as a time past 24:00. Friday and Saturday run later still.

About 36 minutes to St Peter's Square on the Green Line, and the journey planner will do any other pair of stops.
