The new Manchester city centre Exchange Square tram stop is set to open on Sunday 6 December.
Services will initially run between Shaw and Crompton and Exchange Square via the brand new outbound Platform D, opening the same day at Victoria Station’s new-look Metrolink stop. Inbound trams from Oldham will continue to use Victoria stop Platform A.
Combined with the Rochdale via Oldham line service, the new line means a six-minute daytime service between Shaw and Crompton, Oldham and the city centre from Monday to Saturday, with a less frequent service on Sundays.
There are more than 800 FREE car parking spaces combined at Shaw & Crompton, Derker, Oldham Mumps and Hollinwood stops, giving Metrolink customers the chance to park and ride into the heart of the city to enjoy all the Christmas fun on offer.
Full service details are available online now at www.metrolink.co.uk or by calling Metrolink Customer Services on 0161 205 2000.
