Is this true? Where would it have gone? Any other sources?
Next question: Could Trams ever return to NE Lincs?
Where would they go?
I would build a new interchange next to the railway station:
A new futuristic metro system, a fleet of super trams and efficient rail links for North East Lincolnshire were set to end gridlock back in 2002.
The transport network would take in the suburbs of Cleethorpes, a new-look Grimsby dockland and be linked to Immingham, along Pelham Road.
'It may not please everybody but this is the best consensus' - Sea View Street revamp approved
Commuters and shoppers were to be urged to hop on the Freshney Metro tram and leave their cars at home under the revolutionary transport plan.
It was claimed the Freshney Metro would be "expensive but feasible" by council bosses and it was heralded by the Grimsby Telegraph with the headline: "Goodbye to gridlock, at last". But 16 years on, there is still no sign of the plan.

- Waltham-Scartho-Scartho Top-Nunsthorpe-Nuns Corner-Grimsby Town
- Great Coates-Little Coates-Grimsby Town
- Grimsby Town-Louth (as mentioned in another thread)
- Grimsby Town-Old Clee-Cleethorpes station
