Incident at Manchester Airport Transport Interchange

Apparently a package has been found.




From GMP

A cordon is in place at Manchester Airport transport interchange and people are encouraged to follow directions from officers.

Trams, trains and buses are currently suspended to and from the airport interchange.

Thank you for your patience as we respond to this.

Looks like it’s all under control but still...


From GMP

Bomb disposal officers are at #ManchesterAirport transport interchange to assist GMP with enquiries.

As part of their assessment to ensure the package is safe, a controlled explosion took place.


The cordon will remain in place as a precautionary measure as enquiries continue.

Just got back from Manchester, it was a complete snarl up. Everyone thought it was something to do with the collapse of TC but it turns out it was two separate incidents


Firstly a guy running round the interchange stark naked and then after that sorted out it was a suspicious package (maybe how the earlier incident could be described too ) that had to be removed in a controlled explosion
