Location

Drake Street tram stop was a proposedtram stop forGreater Manchester'sMetrolink light rail system, that was to be created to serve passengers boarding and alighting at Drake Street inRochdale, England. It was also known by the nameWet Rake tram stop, and was set to be located on the Oldham and Rochdale Line betweenRochdale railway station andRochdale Town Centre tram stop.

Drake Street was set to be constructed during Phase 3b of Metrolink's expansion, but in March 2011 it was scrapped by theGreater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive which believed it would be too close to Rochdale Town Centre and could serve as an efficiency saving to allow the construction ofKingsway Business Park tram stop.^[1]
