Station Message

Macclesfield station is getting a new look. There are reduced retail facilities while the work is carried out, so it is best to buy your ticket online if you can. The team are still on hand to help you at the station, though we can only accept card payments at this time.

Temporary entrances, exits and toilets will be in operation, so please follow signs to find your way around. We've now launched ANPR to make paying for parking easier. Thanks for your patience while we spruce up your station.
