Im not sure if this has been mentioned before but are the 2 Platforms next to the Metrolink Platforms going to have wires put up as well or will it just be the platforms at the back that are already electrified

They will be electrified as part of the Victoria to Stalybridge electrification, which until recently was due to be completed by the end of this year, but will now be somewhat later. As they are east-facing bays they would not have been usable if done as part of the Liverpool-Manchester wiring.
