Looking along the island platform of the new Droylsden Tram stop on Ashton Road, just to the east of Market Street. This stop will operate as the temporary terminus for the Metrolink East Manchester Line Extension; a facing connection will allow trams from the outbound platform to move forward and onto the inbound line to reverse and return towards Manchester. The East Manchester line will eventually run to Ashton-Under-Lyne; the section between Manchester Piccadilly and Droylsden is scheduled to open “before Christmas 2012”. http://www.lrta.org/Manchester/ashton.html LRT Association "Metrolink - Manchester to Droylsden and Ashton-Under-Lyne" http://www.metrolink.co.uk/futuremetrolink/Pages/east-manchester-line.aspx Transport for Greater Manchester - Metrolink East Manchester Line
