NMS are currently working on two sections of the new Metrolink around Manchester following on from the work carried out on the Oldham line. The Metrolink is broken down into three sections; The Oldham line which was the first section and is now completed and open to the public, the Rochdale line which is due to be completed soon and the Airport line due to open in 2016.
