Commuter capacity dominates Yorkshire RUS

摘要

While passenger growth has been checked by the recession, commuting into Leeds, Sheffield and Manchester is projected to continue growing by around 3% a year. Addressing this rising demand is a major theme in the final version of the Yorkshire εt Humber Route Utilisation Strategy published by Network Rail on July 15.rnExcluding ECML services, the boundary points for the RUS are Scarborough, Cleethorpes, Newark, Chinley, Stalybridge, Rochdale and Skipton. Travel to and from Manchester is therefore an important consideration.
