New Stockport Interchange to open next month

Stockport’s new transport interchange and rooftop park will open next month.

The new facility is due to welcome bus passengers from Sunday 17 March, with the new rooftop park opening the following day.

The multi-million pound development is to feature 18 bus stands with the capacity for 164 departures an hour. It is intended to boost connectivity in the town centre, with the interchange connected to the train station by a new walking and cycling route.
