Local papers are reporting that the promised hourly Northern service York to Scarborough has been postponed until 'later next year' the reason being that infrastructure works haven't been completed. What infrastructure works?

Actually I didn't read it there I read it in a pub where a newspaper was lying on the counter and its not a paper I would otherwise have ever seen, or visited its website. Having searched for the story I found the name of the paper and an article that is in more depth

Northern had planned to run every hour from York to Scarborough, alongside the TransPennine Express service, offering passengers a train every half-hour.
The move, which was expected to be in place by December, would have increased seats from 169 per hour to 450, with an extra 14 trains a day.
However, plans for the new service have now been pushed into next year, due to delays with infrastructure projects, with no firm date for introduction of the enhanced service."
