WHITEHAVEN’S ambitious but controversial transport hub is back on the cards.

Have your say

Yeah righto! Lol.

its probably been said before.. but it could save a fortune.. how about the energy coast and friends buy the erm bus station for a million pound put a descent carpark/taxi rank by the train station and posssibly a covered pedestrian walkway with a zebra crossing to get you over the road to the erm bus station that we already have or had until it was closed many moons back.. or is that too silly and easy of an idea.. it would also free up a good part of road were the buses park and sometimes double park making it dangerous for drivers and the public.. sometimes change isnt the best answer just a lick of paint & a bit of common sense wins..possibly?? maybe?? probably not!!! what would i kno im only a tax payer & resident at the end of the day..im sure workingtons bus station was supposed to close the same time as ours but somehow those jam eaters kept hold of theirs so why didnt we.. it should have been kept open as a going concern until a buyer was found for the land and not left to rot..rant over.

What is Coun Greatorex talking about - "... including park-and-ride facilities". Where exactly are people going to park, in a new underground car park built under Bransty?

Move the garage to beside the Signal Box with the rear toward the railway

Park and Ride to the harbourside and other areas of town? It'll be a Park and Walk...do you really need to jump on a bus?
The harbourside and docks is a nice place to wander round with the dogs on a lovely day..perhaps pop into a pub for something to eat....other than that...you would struggle to walk around the shops for an hour....because there is not many good ones!
I find that Sundays are quite busy on the harbourside when it is nice....but you are knackered if you fancy a Greggs pasty (as expensive as they soon will be)...coz it is shut on Sundays like most of Whitehaven!!!
