Bradford Interchange - 16 Sep-21 Oct.

[Welshman]

I know it's looking ahead a bit, but does anyone know what is planned in the Bradford Interchange area on Sundays during the above dates?

There are buses planned from Leeds-Bradford-Huddersfield; Manchester trains starting at Halifax; the York-Blackpools going via Dewsbury, and GC doing some very interesting things!

This from one of the local timetables, in case you haven't seen it whilst browsing.

"On Sundays between 16 September and 21 October 2012 due to engineering work between Bradford Interchange and Halifax, train services between Leeds and Bradford Interchange will be revised. A separate leaflet will be available nearer the time that includes details of all revised train and bus services."​

Not very specific or helpful but it sounds like general engineering work.

Edit:-

I note now from the WYMetro website that this work has been postponed - whatever it was!

If things haven't changed too much in the last couple of years that period would be the regular weekend possession allowed on the Standedge line.
It was not normally permitted to close both routes at the same time as the Hebden Bridge route is the divert route.

I realise that Hebden Br can still be reached via Greetland and still miss Bradford.

TPE don't sign via Bradford anymore in any case. so the Elland route is their only way to the Calder Valley line.
