AprilCHESTER – WREXHAM – SHREWSBURY RAIL STUDY

The study looks at the capacity constraints of the single track between Wrexham North and Saltney Junction and potential solutions, together with line speed enhancements and their impact as well as an analysis of the business case for building new or re-opening old stations on the line. Several solutions and business cases have been put forward for further investigation including the increasing of the current speed limit from 70mph to 90mph.

Mansel Williams, Chair of the Chester – Shrewsbury Line Liaison Committee, stated “Compliments should go to Scott Wilson Railways and the Study Steering Group for this excellent report which is to form the backbone of the work of the Partnership for the next 10 to 15 years”.
