Middleton Bus Station

A new Go North West bus route – the 129 – has been introduced, running hourly between Hollin, Stanycliffe, Boarshaw, and Middleton.

The service will not run on Sundays.

Go North West say: “From Sunday 11 April, the 129, together with the 415, will get a bold, bright new look - Middleton's Minis.

“Your smart, nippy little buses are getting ready to whizz you all around town, with handy connections at Middleton's bus station for Go North West buses into Manchester and Rochdale.”

You can pay with contactless on board Middleton's Minis and all Go North West buses, or download the Go North West app.
