Railways: North West
(asked on 5th March 2018) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport to make an assessment of the effect on passenger services of Arriva Rail North closing the Southport, Manchester Piccadilly, Manchester Airport line.
This question was answered on 8th March 2018
It is for the operator to provide such an assessment and they did so in September 2016. As a result Arriva Rail North have agreed two morning peak services will go to Piccadilly, and 2 back in the evening. We continue to work with Northern and the user group to look at ways of further improvement for future timetables.
