[...] Stantec’s report suggested it was clear a passenger service between Clitheroe and Hellifield (as an extension of existing Manchester Victoria to Clitheroe services) could be reinstated in the short-term with little or no need for additional infrastructure.
As a local this would be hugely beneficial to me personally. This thread should be kept for discussing actual updates and news; any speculation should be discussed in this thread.
