I AM no railway timetable expert, but if the railway line at Moses Gate is to be closed for up to six weeks, is it not possible to run trains from Manchester and the south to Kearsley or Farnworth stations and from Bolton northwards with a bus shuttle along St Peter's Way between the two — or is this solution too simple?
A bus journey from Trinity Street via Kearsley roundabout to Farnworth or Kearsley stations, whilst not ideal, is far less of a problem for commuters than a journey by bus into Manchester.
Just a thought.
