Passengers on Merseyrail’s Southport and Formby line face disruption to their travel plans for an entire MONTH in February when upgrade work to platforms takes place.
Merseyrail say the wide-scale improvement works, which will run between February 2 – 24, will pave the way for the arrival of the new fleet of trains in 2020.
But in order for the new trains to operate, station platforms will be closed next month to carry out the upgrade which will be done in two phases.
The first phase will be between February 2-10 and will see replacement buses operate between Southport and Formby/Hall Road during this period.
The second phase will then be carried out between February 11-24 and will see buses used between Formby and Moorfields.
