Manchester Road (A662)
This section of the A662 is called Manchester Road. Elsewhere on its journey through the Manchester area it has other names. The barriers in the road are keeping traffic away from construction work for the Manchester Metrolink, which will be extended along here. Just past the end of the barriers on the right is the Halfway House pub. On the left there is a Tameside "Welcome to Droylsden" sign. This marks both the beginning of Droylsden and the boundary of the Tameside Metropolitan Borough district.

The A662 from Manchester towards the Tameside boundary. The metrolink tram extension to Droylsden and Ashton is underway. The tramlines here have already been laid. The road looks surprisingly quiet as traffic is waiting at the lights near the Halfway House.

Manchester Metrolink construction in Manchester Road (A662)
This is preparatory work for the laying of track. The Manchester Metrolink tramway extension to Droylsden will run along here and open in Spring 2012. Later it will be extended to Ashton-under-Lyne.
The tramway will be the third generation of electric street transport to run along here. Manchester's first generation tramway system ran here from the early 20th century until 1938. The road was used by electric trolleybuses from 1938 until December 1966.
