Manchester's ￡3bn Tif Vote Too Close To Call

摘要

The decision to accept a package of transport improvements in Manchester remains on a knife-edge, according to the latest returns. For the proposals to be accepted, seven out of 10 Greater Manchester Authorities must vote "yes". Postal polls close today, with the result expected tomorrow. Historically high turnouts favour "yes" votes in referendums, but turnout figures obtained by NCE, on Tuesday show that Traf-ford, who had the greatest turnout, only had 45.9% returns on their polling cards, and Manchester only 32%.
