Saturday 13 & Sunday 14 August 2022
Services via Huddersfield
We will be replacing a bridge between Huddersfield and Deighton. This will allow the line to be electrified, enabling cleaner, quieter electric trains to run in the future, and support the future doubling of tracks between Huddersfield and Dewsbury from two to four.
We will also be carrying out other improvement work in and around Huddersfield Station.
