From Saturday, 2nd August 2025 to Friday, 22nd August 2025, no trains will run through Stockport Station while Network Rail undertakes significant improvement work to replace the Greek Street roundabout bridge.
The following options are available to help you continue your journey during this time:
- Rail Replacement Buses: Both express and stopping services will operate on routes serving Stockport.
- Diverted Long-Distance Trains: Some long-distance trains will be diverted and may use alternative routes in and out of Manchester.
- Ticket Acceptance: Tickets will also be accepted on selected Bee Network bus and tram services across Greater Manchester.
- Due to Metrolink engineering work in Manchester City Centre the closest tram stop to Manchester Piccadilly station during this time is Market Street.
Further improvement work is planned for October and Christmas 2025, with the final phase scheduled for Spring 2026, when the road and roundabout will reopen.
