Navigation Road railway station serves the Broadheath area of Altrincham in Greater Manchester, England. The station is unusual that it also serves as a Manchester Metrolink station. Passenger trains run down only one of the two tracks and trams down the other. This can create a bottle neck for trams approaching and leaving the terminus at Altrincham. The station is in Metrolink Ticketing Zone G.
Immediately before and after the station are the only two level crossings on the Manchester to Altrincham branch. There is an excellent sandwich shop called "The Filling Staton" in the old station buildings, Breakfast Barms are recommended.
