Lancashire Local Transport Plan 2025-2025 consultation

[td97]

Lancashire CCA have published a consultation on the future of transport in the area.
It is very light on specific details, with the extract below detailing the main rail summary (alongside a case study promoting the success of Blackpool North electrification).

What could this look like?

Improvements to our rail network could include providing extended lines, new passing loops, double tracks and increased platform lengths to improve capacity, delivering electrification to reduce running costs and improve reliability, and transforming our stations into 'Quality Gateways' with much improved environments and fully accessible facilities. Improvements to our mass transit networks could include running high frequency Superbus routes on more urban and interurban corridors, supported by improved technology and priority measures, and consideration of expanding our light rail network.
