Exchange Square is a tram stop on the Manchester Metrolink's Second City Crossing line, and opened on 6 December 2015 as part of Phase 2CC of the network's expansion. It is located by the main entrance to the Manchester Arndale shopping centre, and is also close to the Printworks.
History
The 2CC (Second City Crossing) route was first proposed in 2011 as a means to improve capacity and relieve congestion as the rest of the system expanded. Funded by the Greater Manchester Transport Fund, its route begins at a rebuilt St Peter's Square tram stop, and runs along Princess Street, Cross Street and Corporation Street to re-join the original Metrolink line at Victoria. Exchange Square is the line's only tram stop.
The Second City Crossing was granted approval on 8 October 2013 by the Secretary of State for Transport, and signed off on 28 October 2013 by the GMCA.
Construction began in 2014 and the line from Victoria to Exchange Square was tested in November 2015. The stop opened as a north-facing terminus on 6 December 2015 with trams running to Shaw and Crompton at first. The full Second City Crossing was completed in early 2017 from Exchange Square to St Peter's Square. Services to East Didsbury and Rochdale then joined the 2CC.
Layout
Exchange Square tram stop consists of two platforms (island platform). There are four large canopies over the stop which covers most of the platforms. At the stop, there are eight seats and four perch seats on each platform. There are two ticket machines back-to-back near the centre of the stop. One passenger help point is also located near the ticket machines.
Two dot matrix passenger information displays hang from the canopies serving one platform each, and show estimated arrival times for trams in minutes up to 30 minutes prior (up to three at a time) and number of carriages.
There are two ramps at each end of the platforms, providing step-free access for passengers, and several signs on the platforms indicating the name of the stop, its fare zone, tram destinations, and some indicate any closure notices or announcements for passengers.
Services
Services run every 12 minutes on all routes. Some routes (not shown here) only run during peak times.
From this stop, services run to East Didsbury in one direction and to Victoria, Oldham and Rochdale in the other. Tram stops at Shudehill and Market Street are both a 3-5 minute walk away from here, forming out-of-station interchanges.
