Bolton's fantastic town centre shuttle bus is set to continue for another year.
The metroshuttle which is jointly funded by Bolton Council and Transport For Greater Manchester and covered 15 stops on its 3 mile circular.
The service is availabe Monday to Saturday between 9am-5pm.
The servic e has clocked up over 90,000 passenger journeysso far this year and the contract has been agreed for another year with South Lancs travel.
