No that was one of the options in the Northern/TPE consultation
Option A:
South TPE remains the same
Barton Humber goes to EMT
Option B:
South TPE diverted to Hull
Barton Humber stays with Northern
Doncaster-Cleethorpes moves to Northern
Option B was rejected in favour of option A. Arriva including Sheffield-Hull as a Connect route reduces the chance of that idea being resurrected.
However the DfT subsequently used weasel words, the summary of which was 'we will not be pursuing the Nottingham option at this time, but will reexamine it when awarding the EMT franchise', given that there are clearly other very significant changes to the Northern Connect routes in Cumbria I would not discount something happening here.
