By Tram The new MetroLink opened in May 2012. The nearest tram station is Oldham Mumps.
Trams arrive at this station every 12 minutes or so. From the station, walk alongside
the car park, and cross the A62, into Lees Road. After nearly half a mile,
and after the fire station, turn left up Balfour Street. Balfour Street is quite steep.
As the road at last starts to level off, Arundel Street is on your right
after about 300 metres. The Barnabas Centre is about 30
metres along Arundel Street, on your left. |

By Car The M62
motorway joins Leeds and Liverpool. The portion around Manchester forms part
of the Manchester orbital road and is numbered as the M60. If travelling from Leeds,
leave the M60 at junction 22 and turn toward the A672 (signposted
‘Saddleworth’ and ‘Oldham’). Take this road until its very end (about 8
miles). Warning: the A672 is often very steep, has many tights bends, and
there are many speed cameras. At the end, you will be
facing a large carpet store, and with a huge Tesco Extra superstore to your
right. Turn right. You will still be on Huddersfield Road (the A62). Almost immediately, turn
left after the giant Carpet where a large white sign says ‘Precinct still open’.
This is Dunkerley Street. Drive to the end (about 50 metres). At the end of Dunkerley
Street is a crossroads, with Greenacres Primary school on your right. Go
straight ahead, crossing Greenacres Road. Less than 5 metres after the
crossroads, turn right into Balfour Street, and immediately left into Arundel
Street. The Barnabas Centre is 30
metres along Arundel
Street, on your left. |
