Wombwell station car park to fully reopen

Wombwell station car park will be completely reopened for customers from Friday 3 July, after important works to upgrade Hough Lane road bridge.
 
The road was closed to motorists in January to allow Network Rail engineers to safely demolish the old bridge, which was built in 1895, and replace it with a stronger, wider one, with more spacious pavements and a cycle path. The upgraded bridge also allows trains to pass through Wombwell station at faster speeds, resulting in more reliable journeys for passengers.
 
SYPTE have worked with both Network Rail and BMBC to enable them to use our car park at the station to gain access to the site base.  During this time, part of the car park was closed to customers.
 
The road bridge reopened on Thursday 18 June.
