Local Sustainable Transport Fund Bid

TeesValley Unlimited were successful in their bid to the Local Sustainable Transport Fund Tranche 2 on behalf of the five Tees valley authorities.

This project draws on specific evidence to promote measures designed to improve access to the rail network for current and future users, by addressing end-to-end journey needs and filling a gap in current service provision. The measures include improved passenger facilities at stations, enhanced information on the whole journey and a new rail station at one of the major employment and trip generation sites. The measures are part of a long term plan to use the existing rail network assets in a more cost effective and efficient way to support the economic regeneration of the area and reduce carbon emissions.
