Audenshaw School

The graph below compares September 2020 vehicle journey times (when there were less people travelling on the network due to COVID-19 restrictions) with September 2019 data.

Journey time data shows that congestion is worse on the roads surrounding the school, especially at the end of the school day on A6017 Denton Road between 2pm-3.30pm.

This could be due to more students arriving and departing to schools via car, as well as other congestion reasons such as roadworks and incidents.

To minimise this increased congestion spike, students and parents are encouraged to have a look at the public transport alternatives and dedicated school services below.

The dedicated 721 school bus service operates from the school.

• 721 - Audenshaw - Hooley Hill - Dukinfield - Broadbent Fold

The 347 bus serves Ashton, Guide Bridge, Denton and Haughton Green. Students can board and alight the service on Denton Road, a couple of minutes walk from the school.

Capacity on the commercial bus network continues to be significantly reduced due to coronavirus social distancing measures.

TfGM are working with operators to run around 300 additional bus journeys each weekday across the region to help students using public transport get to and from school and college safely.

Duplicate bus journeys exclusively for school and college students run behind the original scheduled service at set times, with the usual route number starting in ‘S’ to show they are school services.

🚴 Cycle shelters and stands for cycle parking are available for students to use at the school.
