Robinswood Road Tramstop, Inbound

Metrolink Bombardier tram number 3086 waits at the Robinswood Road stop on its journey towards Manchester (Cornhill). The Robinswood Road stop is unusual for the Airport line in that it is the only one where the alignment uses neither an island platform nor are the two platforms facing each other. The track here runs along a strip of land on the southern side of Simonsway. The inbound (towards Manchester) platform at the Robinswood Road stop is situated to the east of the signalled junction with Brownley and Ruddpark Roads whilst the outbound (towards Manchester Airport) platform is to the west of this junction which replaced the roundabout which used to be here.
