I'm glad the land issue of this project has been sorted but has there been any funding allocated to construct the station? It'd be pretty useful (service pattern permitting) for me since I live around a mile from the proposed station site, would save the trip into Preston.

I'd be quite happy for either tram conversion or heavy raiil use just so long as it makes getting to Poulton easier, as a resident of Fleetwood I'm getting quite sick of people saying "oh Fleetwood has busses to Blackpool that are frequent" or "Trams from Fleetwood to Blackpool North", I do both...
