A HI-TECH electronic information board for bus passengers is to be unveiled in Bolton this week.

The computerised device has been installed at Moor Lane station and aims to give commuters up to the minute details on services.

It is one of 25 information points across the region which will be going live in time for the Commonwealth Games. The scheme has cost £600,000.

It is hoped the electronic board will help people who visit Bolton to watch the cycling events and badminton to plan their journey.

The new information point will be unveiled on Wednesday.
