New Tramway Under Construction
Shown on the OS map as "dismantled railway", new track has been laid in this old railway cutting, ready for the extension to the Metrolink tramway to run from Manchester to Oldham and Rochdale. This is looking towards Oldham, from Monsall Road. The spectacular structure ahead is part of the newly constructed Central Park tram station (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Park_Metrolink_station ).

Central Park Metrolink Station
Central Park Station, part of the recently (June 2012) opened Metrolink “phase 3A” expansion to Oldham, is certainly the most impressive tram stop on the network to date, featuring a striking curved copper and glass canopy suspended by a cable-tensioned steel structure. The station serves The Central Park Urban Regeneration Area in north-east Manchester. It forms part of The Gateway, a £36.5 million transport interchange which will include local bus services as well as the Metrolink tram stop (http://www.manchester.gov.uk/site/scripts/news_article.php?newsID=1582 Manchester City Council).
