Stockport’s New Electric Bus Depot

from Manchester News Today | The Daily News Now!

Greater Manchester is set to revolutionize public transport with a cutting-edge electric bus depot in Stockport, slated to be the region’s first of its kind — paving the way for a fully zero-emission bus network by 2030. Located on Heathside Park Road, the new facility will house 200 buses, replacing the aging Daw Bank depot soon to be demolished to make way for 400 new homes in the Stockport Eight development. Construction kicks off in 2027, with full operation by late 2029, while temporary depots will keep services running. This bold move combines sustainability, urban regeneration, and modern infrastructure to transform Stockport’s future — one clean bus at a time.
