Services across Greater Manchester’s tram network have been disrupted by an overhead line fault.

No trams were operating between Manchester city centre and Altrincham and Eccles earlier.

Other services were shortened, including those for Oldham, Manchester Airport, Trafford Park and East Didsbury.

The Bee Network later said services were operating on all lines but with minor delays.
