Getting the tram at Heaton Park

Heaton Park is served by two lines, Blue Line and Green Line, so you get roughly twice the service of a single-line stop. It is about 20 minutes from St Peter's Square in the city centre on the Green Line, and 6.0 km away on the ground. On the Blue Line it is stop 6 of 27. On the Green Line it is stop 6 of 25. On a Sunday the Green Line does not run, so the service here is thinner than the rest of the week. Counting both directions, 260 trams call on a normal weekday.

Questions about Heaton Park

the Blue Line and the Green Line.

05:31, Monday to Thursday. Saturday and Sunday both start later; the table above has each day.

The last one leaves at 00:48, after midnight — it still counts as the previous day’s service, which is why timetables write it as a time past 24:00. Friday and Saturday run later still.

About 20 minutes to St Peter's Square on the Green Line, and the journey planner will do any other pair of stops.

Yes: the Green Line does not run on Sundays, so only Blue Line call here that day.
