This question was answered on 11th September 2015
Transport for the North (TfN) is currently working in partnership with Network Rail in order to advise the Government on the strategic investment priorities for the North of England.
We are currently exploring options to establish TfN as a statutory body with statutory duties so that it can further drive economic growth in the North. As we take forward these discussions with TfN, Network Rail and others we will consider the working relationships between the various parties.
