HOW TO GET THERE

GETTING THERE

The address for the J.Davidson Stadium is: The J. Davidson Stadium, Moss Lane, Altrincham WA15 8AP

By Car:

Leave M6 motorway at junction 19 (Manchester and Airport sign). Join A556 and follow Airport signs to M56. Do NOT take the M56 but carry straight on at roundabout on A56. At first traffic lights (1 mile) turn right for Bowdon/Hale (B5161). Carry on for 1 mile, passing The Quality Hotel on the right. Go through the traffic lights, then right at the mini roundabout into Hale Road (avoiding town centre). Carry on for approximately 1 mile, turning left into Westminster Road (opposite cemetery entrance). Carry straight on for approximately 3/4 mile into Moss Lane, the football ground is on the right.

There is no parking at The J.Davidson Stadium but there is plenty of on-street parking available which is permitted except where indicated by yellow lines or traffic cones.

By Public Transport:

Altrincham Interchange, in the town centre, is served by buses from Manchester Piccadilly bus station; Arriva service 263, and Stagecoach’s X41, (the latter is a much slower and less regular service). The Transport for Greater Manchester bus timetable library provides the times of these services. The Metrolink tram system terminates at Altrincham and be caught in Manchester City centre as well as at Manchester Piccadilly and Victoria stations. Be sure to get a tram whose destination is Altrincham as several other routes operate to other towns. Tickets for Metrolink have to be bought from machines prior to making your journey. The bus is cheaper.

Buses from Piccadilly typically take 45 minutes to Altrincham but allow longer in the rush hour. Metrolink takes about 30 minutes and is unpredictable as there is no published timetable. Notionally trams operate every 12 minutes and every six in peak hours.

Altrincham FC is about 10-12 minutes walk from Altrincham Interchange. The Interchange is a terminus for buses, trains and the Metrolink tram system. You can exit the railway/tram station on two sides. The town centre side has a forecourt in which is located a distinctive clock tower; the rear station exit is into a car park.

Exiting from town centre side: With the clock tower in front of you and the station behind you, turn left into Stamford New Road (the Railway Hotel is on the far side) and take the first left (Moss Lane). Go over the railway bridge and pass a large Tesco hypermarket to your right. At the road junction at Tesco’s (traffic-light controlled) go straight on up Moss Lane. Walk for about 8 minutes, passing a park on your right and crossing a mini-roundabout, till you reach the ground on your left.

Exiting from rear of the rail/tram station: If you have arrived by tram you can use the station footbridge to arrive at the rear exit. From here go forward 100 yards or so and turn right onto Oakfield Road. At the first set of traffic lights, turn left onto Moss Lane. Walk for about 8 minutes, passing a park on your right and crossing a mini-roundabout, till you reach the ground on your left.
