We’re proposing an upgrade to a section of railway between Huddersfield and Westtown (Dewsbury) to deliver passenger benefits along the Transpennine railway.

我们希望创造一个更好的表演铁路,乘客可以依赖更多座位,更多的火车和更快的旅程。通过创建一个更好的连接北方,这将为人们提供更多机会前往工作,学习或看家庭和朋友。

去年秋天,我们要求人们对我们的建议发表评论,以升级Huddersfield和韦斯特敦(Dewsbury)之间的铁路。感谢每个人花时间反馈;这些评论在进一步发展设计方面至关重要。

我们现在已关闭我们对第二轮磋商的反馈,并正在审查收到的意见。但是,您仍然可以查看以下开发的设计。

Why is the scheme important?

升级Huddersfield和Westtown之间的铁路部分 - 大约半英里的德沃尔伯里站 - 是沿着Transpennine Railway提供乘客乘客的关键。该领域的当前铁路布局意味着我们无法运行更多的火车或比目前的列车更快,而这一部分的赛道可能是延迟的原因。

好处

With 85% of respondents who fed back through our first round of consultation supporting the scheme, we understand how important it is to passengers and the community that we deliver the benefits of the upgrade.

轨道将沿着大部分铁路从两到四倍加倍,这意味着一个更具弹性和可靠的铁路,而且还改善了旅程时间并为乘客提供更频繁的火车。

站将升级到现代标准,并将为乘客提供更好的可访问性设施。我们的提案包括Huddersfield,Deighton,Mirfield和Ravensthorpe的改进。

我们计划将铁路从Huddersfield与Ravensthorpe(Ravensthorpe)电气通知到Leeds。这意味着更清洁的旅行,对于在铁路附近的人来说可能更安静。

拥有更多座位和更多的列车,我们的建议将更好地连接北方的城市。我们希望建立一个乘客和企业可以信任的铁路。

第1阶段公开咨询

Our first round of public consultation took place from Monday 9 September until Friday 25 October 2019. Within this period, we held nine events in the area between Huddersfield and Westtown (Dewsbury) where the public were able to attend, view our proposals, ask any questions and share their feedback.

Phase 2 public consultation

Our second round of public consultation took place from Monday 16 March until Thursday 30 April 2020. Due to the government advice on Covid-19, the eight events organised had to be cancelled. The public were still able to view the proposals online, feedback or ask any questions via the email or the helpline.

在此咨询期间,我们要求提供以下内容:

  • Deighton Station的重建 - 将其留在当前位置与重建400米到西方。
  • Colne Bridge Road is formed of two arches, both are currently not large enough to allow for the proposed railway to pass through – this requires us to replace the bridge. Two options are currently being developed.
  • 为了支持哈德斯菲尔德站的新,更长的平台和曲目,我们建议更换约翰威廉街桥,以支持当前的Huddersfield高架桥现有的墙壁。目前正在开发三种选择。
  • Ravensthorpe车站的重建和评论我们的建议将其移动到西方300米。

下一步

我们计划在年底提交我们的运输和工程法案申请。

Consents for work

为了在现有的边界外构建铁路,需要运输和工程行动(TWAO)。这是经国家秘书批准的立法,授予执行工作的许可。
