Direct Rail Link To London

  • Tweet
LNER

The Government have repeatedly pointed out that if we are to improve the local economy and extend growth, we will need greater transport connectivity. The Humber region has the largest port complex in the country and is at the cutting edge of the renewables sector. Calls for regular direct services are supported by local political and business leaders, the chamber of commerce and the local enterprise partnership.

I have raise the issue on countless occasions with ministers, LNER and open access operators such as Grand Central. I am encouraged by the detailed technical work which has been taking place recently to assess the physical ability of LNER trains to make the journey to Cleethorpes. While I understand there are issues for boarding at Market Rasen, Grimsby and Cleethorpes stations appear fit for purpose.

I will continue to make the case to both LNER and the Department for Transport that the direct service should be included in the timetable at the earliest opportunity.
