See also: History of Manchester Metrolink. The station was originally opened on 1 December 1859 by the Manchester, South Junction and Altrincham Railway (MSJAR) after Samuel Brooks, a Manchester banker, built an estate of large houses along Brooklands Road. It closed as a British Rail station on 24 December 1991 before reopening as a Metrolink station on 15 June 1992.
In January 1999, Brooklands Station became a Grade II listed building.[1]
Brooklands is on the Altrincham Line, with trams towards Altrincham stopping every 6 minutes during the day, Monday to Saturday, every 12 minutes Monday to Saturday evenings and Sundays. Trams also head towards Manchester and Bury, with the Monday to Saturday daytime service running every 12 minutes each to Piccadilly or Bury, while evening and Sunday journeys run to Piccadilly only.[2]
As of January 2019, Brooklands is located in Metrolink ticket zones 3 and 4.[3]
Brooklands is served hourly by Diamond Bus route 281, which runs from Altrincham to Sale, via Broadheath, Timperley, and Brooklands Road.[4]
