Proposed route of tramway extension, Heaton Park, Manchester. 2014
Proposed route of tramway extension, Heaton Park, Manchester. Sunday 06 July 2014.
In due course it is proposed to extend the existing Heaton Park tramway across the park from the existing boating lake terminus to a new terminus at Bury New Road opposite the Heaton Park Metrolink station. This proposal is subject to approval and funding and would be built to a ‘light rail’ standard with high platforms to enable preserved Manchester Metrolink T68 1000 series tram 1007 to operate thus providing a very useful link from the Metrolink to the boating lake where passengers could change to ride on the heritage trams.
