Platforms 15/16

@PiccPlatforms

Campaign to build Platforms 15/16 at Manchester Piccadilly (it was government policy once, you know). Lost cause or not, I'll keep posting memes 'til I die.

Britain can build big engineering projects, and do them well. We just choose not to outside of London!

Sorry. Not beautiful. And no amount or authoritarian tolerance is going to change that.

We 💚 freight trains But please keep them away from #ManchesterPiccadilly & the Castlefield Corridor! Time to build an alternative route to free up space for passenger trains

💚 Did you know? 🛤️ Freight trains reduce emissions on average by 76% when compared to road transport 🏭 That's around 1.4m tonnes of CO2 emissions saved each year ➡️ bit.ly/FreightIsGreat #WeMeanGreen #FreightFriday 👀 @DBCargoUK

Government policy is still to just tinker around the edges. £100m here, £84m there. Commission another report, run another consultation. Just build the extra platforms and be done with it already.

Part two of my interview with Transport Secretary @grantshapps ahead of today's announcement of an £84m investment into the region's railways to improve reliability. Mayor @AndyBurnhamGM says it won't come close to solving congestion #LDReporter manchestereveningnews.co.uk/…

Government reveal funding for 'shorter-term' stuff for region's railways

The £84m investment by the government promises to cut delays and make trains more reliable – but the Transport Secretary said a solution for the congested Castefield corridor will cost billions
