Major disruption as trains between Leeds and Huddersfield replaced by buses for work to build new Morley Station

Over nine days, engineers working on the multi-billion-pound Transpennine Route Upgrade will lay the foundations for new, longer platforms and realign the tracks around Morley station.

This is in preparation for a new, accessible station to open later this year around 75 metres down the line from the existing station and ultimately offer more reliable, longer trains with more seats available for passengers travelling between Manchester, Huddersfield, Leeds and York.
