Formerly Whitefield railway station on the Manchester Victoria to Bury heavy rail line, the station was converted and opened for Metrolink use on 6 April 1992. It lies in ticketing zones 3 and 4. Extensive park and ride facilities were built in 2015 along with a new terminal for the old bus interchange. The area around the station was redeveloped, and is centred on a new Morrisons supermarket.
