Fast, frequent and reliable services run to Oldham where you can then continue your journey to Boundary Park on foot or by bus.

Westwood is the closest stop to the ground, around a 20-minute walk away.

Journeys on the tram take approximately 20 minutes from Manchester Victoria.

Metrolink operates a zonal fare system with Westwood, Oldham King Street, Oldham Central and Oldham Mumps all located in zone 3.

The cost of a zone 1+2+3 ticket is £3.80 for a single journey or £4.30 for an off-peak day travelcard. This price covers travel across any of these zones, such as a journey between Manchester Piccadilly and Manchester Victoria.

You can now travel by tram with contactless cards and devices using the smart readers on stops. The stops where you touch in and touch out will show us the zones you have travelled through so that you are charged the correct amount.

Tickets must be purchased before travel, with ticket machines located on every platform at all Metrolink stops.
