History

The stop was built as part of Phase 3b of the network's expansion, and opened on 9 October 2013,[1] ahead of the originally-publicised schedule of the winter of 2013–14.[3]

In May 2009, a special fund of £1.5 billion was agreed for 15 transport schemes in Greater Manchester. These included a further 2.1-mile (3.4 km) extension to the East Manchester line from Droylsden to Ashton-under-Lyne. Plans for the extension from Droylsden to Ashton-under-Lyne were fully approved by the Department for Transport in March 2010 whereupon MPact-Thales was appointed as the main contractor.[4]
