Written question asked by Lord Bradshaw (Liberal Democrat), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Earl Attlee (Conservative) on Tuesday, 8 November 2011.
Railways: Trans-Pennine Express
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether their plans for enhancing the trans-Pennine express railway route have given consideration to the needs of passengers using local stations on the route.
- Answer
-
The Ordsall Curve is scheduled to open in Manchester in 2016. In addition, line speed improvements will be delivered on the route between Liverpool and Manchester. These will facilitate the potential recast of trans-Pennine services between Manchester and Leeds where key links such as commuting flows from local stations to the main centres of Leeds, Manchester and Huddersfield can potentially be improved.
