Written question asked by Imran Hussain (Labour) on Monday, 21 February 2022, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 23 February 2022. It was answered by Andrew Stephenson (Conservative) on Monday, 28 February 2022 on behalf of the Department for Transport.
Calder Valley Line
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many additional trains are planned to run from Bradford rail stations to Manchester rail stations each weekday under the Integrated Rail Plan.
- Answer
-
Direct services between Manchester and Bradford will remain at typically 2 trains per hour as part of the Integrated Rail Plan. However, a similar journey time should be possible by instead changing at Leeds onto NPR services, making use of the electrification and upgrade of the Calder Valley Line from Bradford to Leeds which will reduce journey times to as low as 12 minutes. That would give up to quadrupling of typical frequency.
