Written Question
Railways: Stoke on Trent
Wednesday 14th January 2026

Asked by: Adam Jogee (Labour - Newcastle-under-Lyme)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will meet the hon. Member for Newcastle-under-Lyme to discuss the potential merits of a direct train connection between Stoke-on-Trent Railway Station and Manchester Airport.

Answered by Keir Mather - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

West Midland Trains is working with the industry and stakeholders on a proposal to amend its Stafford to Crewe service including a potential extension to Manchester Airport. The introduction of new services will require a business case that demonstrates value for money, as well as minimising any risk to the performance of existing services.
