Location

Broadway is a Manchester Metrolink tram stop in Salford Quays, Salford, close to the border with Weaste, a nearby suburb. It is on the Eccles Line and in fare zone 2. This stop was opened on 6 December 1999 as part of Phase 2 of the network's expansion and has step-free access.

The stop is located at ground (street) level. It is one of the lesser used stops on the Metrolink network, being the least used tram stop in 2023/24. Immediately north of Broadway tram stop is a three-way T-junction with Broadway (road) which runs perpendicular to the tram stop's platforms and is the stop's namesake, and South Langworthy Road, which continues north from Broadway (road). The tram tracks merge onto South Langworthy Road north of the stop.

Broadway for a short time was the terminus of the Eccles Line, however the line was extended further to the current and intended terminus of Eccles on 21 July 2000, after seven months.
