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 between the northern side of Robinswood Road and the southern side of Simonsway. The outbound (towards Manchester Airport) platform at the Robinswood Road stop is situated to the west of the signalled junction with Brownley and Ruddpark Roads whilst the inbound (towards Manchester) platform is to the west of this junction which replaced the roundabout which used to be here.
