History

In 2013, the Greater Manchester Combined Authority and the Greater Manchester Local Enterprise Partnership announced it may fund the construction of the Trafford Park line as far as Trafford Centre Metrolink station using the Earnback mechanism of the Greater Manchester City Deal, estimating that the line could be open to passengers by 2018/19 (subject to a satisfactory business case, Transport and Works Act Order and public consultation).[2]

The Metrolink stop at the Trafford Centre was endorsed by former owner intu Properties,[3] and is located along a new line routed from Pomona.[4][5] An alternative route to this proposed stop also featured in Salford City Council's unitary development plan (2004–2016), whereby Metrolink would be expanded to the Trafford Centre from Eccles Interchange via the A57 road at Barton-upon-Irwell.[6] It opened on 22 March 2020.[7][8]

Following the administration of the intu Group, the shopping centre was renamed to drop references to its former owner in November 2020.[9] Online references to the stop were altered to The Trafford Centre in January 2021.[10]

Layout

The Trafford Centre received approval for a new covered walkway to connect the shopping centre to the tram stop,[11] which has been completed ready for the start of passenger service.

Services

From this stop a service runs every 12 minutes towards Deansgate-Castlefield. There are plans to extend the red route up to Crumpsall on the Bury line, but when this is to be done is unknown.
