In July 2018, Farnworth’s new bus station opened for its first services. Delivered by TfGM in partnership with Bolton Council, the improved facility includes improved shelters, seating, street lighting, cycle parking and journey information.
In addition the junction of King Street and Market Street was upgraded to improve walking routes into the town and bus journeys into the new station.
The bus station improvements were funded through the Greater Manchester Local Growth Deal as part of the Salford Bolton Network Improvement (SBNI) programme.
