Just to clarify, the Gtr Manchester ban will cover the entire county as. TFGM s original plan was simply to. ban anything worse than Euro4 and would only cover the Leigh Guided Busway and and the A57 through Salford across the city and Oxford Road corridor as well as the rest of the city centre and Rochdale Road as far as Middleton. ie. easily managed by operators at no cost other than better vehicle allocation
