INVESTING IN CUMBRIA’S RAILWAYS
Progress now.
More to do.
Over the past two years, investment has started to tackle some long-standing problems on Cumbria’s railways. £4.5 million to strengthen Eskmeals Viaduct on the Cumbrian Coast Line. £4.5 million to cover repairs and protection works at Leven Viaduct on the Furness Line. £13.5 million for the Carlisle Station Gateway project, which includes better access to the station. £60 million to reopen Bransty Tunnel and tackle the pollution affecting Whitehaven Harbour.
There’s still a big job ahead to make trains more frequent and reliable and stations easier to use across Cumbria. £1.5 million has been secured to develop the business case for upgrades to the Cumbrian Coast Line, which is now being drawn up. Upgrade plans for the Furness Line are in the early stages. What you tell us about the journeys you make, or would make if services were better, will help shape the case for investment across Cumbria's rail network.
