While I was on the train today I was talking to someone about how the railway and tram networks in Manchester seem to be a constant building site with many temporary line closures, diversions and reduced number of services operating while improvement works take place many of which over run.
Some of the examples include Oldham Loop Line Conversion, Victoria Improvements, Farnworth Tunnel improvements, St Peter's Square, Todmorden Curve Chat Moss Electrification and the Manchester Airport temporary closure.
I know once its all completed the network will be better but while the improvement works take place the disruption to services can be rather difficult at times and I sometimes wonder if there are too many rail projects happening at once. Does anyone else agree?
