Northumberland County Council is in the process of submitting planning applications for the scheme.

There are no plans to remove Blyth Bebside from the programme.

Earlier this year the Government committed £34m for the restoration of passenger services between Newcastle and Ashington. I expect a Final Business Case by the end of the year.
