Greater Manchester Franchising

RE: Greater Manchester Franchising
There is an article in the paper today stating that TFL will require massive subsidies to keep going as passenger numbers in London will fall by 20-40% from pre-pandemic levels. This is because of changing work patterns so, assuming that Manchester is in the same situation, then franchising costs will also go through the roof without any benefits as most suggested ones are pie in the sky.
