BBC News - 'HS3' rail link for north of England backed by Sir David Higgins

BBC News - 'HS3' rail link for north of England backed by Sir David Higgins




What we need in Lincolnshire is to retain the existing service from Cleethorpes to Sheffield and Manchester Airport.  There was a consultation about closing this direct service earlier this year - the outcome has not yet been announced.  Some joined up policy on transport policy is needed!





"The announcement is a long way shy of any solid commitment to speed up trains
across the Pennines................

If you've ever caught a train between, say, Hull and Liverpool, you'll know how
frustratingly slow and often overcrowded it can be. It doesn't exactly oil the
wheels of industry being stuck on an overcrowded old chug-chug for hours on end."
