Stretford is a tram stop on the Altrincham Line of Greater Manchester's light-rail Metrolink system. It is located in Stretford, on the corner of Chester Road and Edge Lane. It opened on 15 June 1992 as part of Phase 1 of Metrolink's expansion.

The stop was formerly Stretford railway station, a regional rail station which was opened by the Manchester South Junction and Altrincham Railway (MSJAR) as Edge Lane railway station on 20 July 1849, was renamed to Stretford in September 1849, and closed on 24 December 1991 for conversion from heavy rail to light rail.

There is a large car park for the tram stop on the Manchester-bound platform. Each platform has ticket machines, a waiting shelter and a dot-matrix indicator on each platform. There is step-free access for both platforms from Edge Lane and both platforms have a touch-in/out point. There is a bike rack at the station. There is a road bridge over the tracks. This is the only route from one platform to the other.

The station originally opened as Edge Lane on 20 July 1849 by the MSJAR (not to be confused with Edge Lane tram stop), and was renamed Stretford in September 1849. The station operated as a four-platform station from circa 1900 until 1963. Stretford closed as a British Rail station on 24 December 1991 for conversion to Metrolink, and reopened for Metrolink services on 15 June 1992.

Services run every 12 minutes on all routes. Some routes (as indicated) only operate during peak times.
