===Railway===
[[Ardwick railway station]] is on the [[Hope Valley line]] and is served by only one service every weekday from [[Manchester Piccadilly station|Manchester Piccadilly]] to [[Rose Hill Marple railway station|Rose Hill Marple]]. 

The station opened in 1842 and was operated by a number of railway companies over the years. There were plans to close it in the 1980s and its future looked bleak for a long period after that, but closure plans were finally scrapped in 2006. The current service is operated by [[Northern Trains|Northern]]. The station consists of a waiting shelter on a single island platform between the tracks, access to which requires the use of steps.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.thetrainline.com/stations/ardwick |title=Trains to Ardwick |publisher=Trainline |access-date=20 February 2020 |archive-date=20 February 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200220170118/https://www.thetrainline.com/stations/ardwick |url-status=live }}</ref> The station is the site of a memorial to Paul McLaughlin, who died there on 13 December 1997.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~owend/interests/rail/stnpages/ardwick.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171119183219/http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~owend/interests/rail/stnpages/ardwick.html |archive-date=19 November 2017 |url-status=live |title=Ardwick |website=chiark.greenend.org.uk |access-date=20 February 2020}}</ref>
