Passenger statistics from the Office of Rail and Road

Navigation Road is a station that serves both Northern Trains and Manchester Metrolink trams located in the east of Altrincham, in Greater Manchester, England. It consists of a Northern Trains-operated bidirectional heavy rail platform on the Mid-Cheshire Line opposite a bidirectional light rail platform on the Altrincham Line of Greater Manchester's Metrolink network. The original heavy rail station was opened by the Manchester, South Junction and Altrincham Railway in 1931 as a pair of single-face platforms, and in 1992 one was given over to the Metrolink network. A level crossing operates at the southern end of the station.
