Stop Garforth Station Footbridge leaving Yorkshire


Stop Garforth Station Footbridge leaving Yorkshire
The Issue
Lets try to keep Garforth Station Footbridge in Yorkshire. Now Planning is granted by Leeds City Council to remove the Grade II listed Footbridge from Garforth Station. There is a plan by Network Rail to send it to a non preserved line in Kent. We believe it should stay in Yorkshire as close to Garforth as is practical. We have found a true preserved heritage line called The Yorkshire Wolds Railway. They have plans to extend along the original line and the Footbridge will provide a much needed feature for access for the public. Time is tight. Please sign your support for the bridge to stay in Yorkshire on a preserved heritage line.
