Work starts on Halton Curve rail project

Passengers will be able to use Chester’s new £13.5m bus interchange at Gorse Stacks from next Tuesday 30 May with park-and-ride buses the first services, followed by all bus operators the following week.

Chester’s new bus interchange has undergone its first live testing ahead of a rescheduled handover in May this year.

Engineering company CH2M has pulled out of a £170m development partner contract to deliver the high speed rail line from Crewe to Manchester, with underbidder Mace calling for a rerun of the procurement process.

Cheshire East Council is to shortly begin procuring for a design-and-build contractor to deliver the £90m Congleton link road, and is assessing methods to allow preparatory works to start in January 2018.

A £1.25m grant has been allocated by the Department for Transport to Cheshire East Council, to pay for the creation of an outline business case for the Middlewich bypass.

The construction and property sector has seen unprecedented changes in recent years and as we enter a new period we think it’s important to understand the impact of this on industry professionals.

Cheshire West & Chester Council has approved the Gorse Stacks bus interchange for the next stage of development and is now procuring for a construction partner.

Cheshire West & Chester Council is asking for the public's views on facilities to be included within the new bus interchange proposed for Gorse Stacks.
