Oldhamers planning to get the tram into Manchester city centre on Sunday (September 29) have been warned of potential disruption.
Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) has said that works need to be carried out a pedestrian walkway between Corporation Street and Victoria.
The works are set to be carried out on Sunday morning, from the start of service until 10am.
This means that the Oldham line will end at Victoria and not continue on to Exchange Square until after the works have been completed.

Other services will be affected, with trams coming from Bury also halting at Victoria and not continuing on to Piccadilly.
As a result, TfGM has said a replacement bus service will run though the city centre at affected stops.
The bus will start at Victoria before going to Shudehill, Piccadilly Gardens and finally Piccadilly, running every 15 minutes in both directions.
From the start of service until 10am, the affected tram services will operate as follows:
Bury – Victoria
Rochdale Town Centre – Victoria
East Didsbury – Exchange Square
Manchester Airport – Cornbrook
All other services will run as normal.
