Positive to see today that @SirPeterHendy has highlighted the need for more capacity and faster journey times between 🏴 & 🏴 by rail on the East Coast Main Line We will continue to work closely with the both @GOVUK & @scotgov to ensure the line gets the necessary investment🛤️
Important #PMQs question from @IanMearnsMP. If Govt is serious about levelling up then it must commit to extending the benefits of major infrastructure schemes as far as possible (and investing in ECML to enable us to reap those benefits) @FastTrackEC

North East business and political leaders have written to @grantshapps pressing the case for investment in the East Coast Main Line, including full reopening of the Leamside Line. In a letter coordinated by @NEEChamber, they say a major upgrade north of York is needed.
Pleased to ✍️ @NEEChamber letter calling for HS2, NPR & major upgrades to the East Coast Main Line north of York. North East has been held back by antiquated rail infrastructure for too long - Govt must act in the Integrated Rail Plan next month🚆#rail 👉ow.ly/G2VP50Dwo8u
Thank you for using our story today, @TheNorthernEcho 👉thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/19076626.…
“We need HS2 & Northern Powerhouse Rail delivered, along with investment in regional links to tackle decades of underinvestment in the North East's rail links"- @NEEChamberJames in our letter to Govt, signed by North East business and political leaders 👉ow.ly/G2VP50Dwo8u
Watch @caroline_gm_d report @BBCNews this lunchtime @BBCOne with @grantshapps #NorthumberlandLine & @NP_Partnership on why we also need substantial further investment on @FastTrackEC to ensure #NorthEast gets benefits it vitally needs from @HS2ltd & #NPR bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…
Research from Invest East Coast shows that investing in the existing line will deliver over £11 billion of wider economic benefits including the delivery of HS2 and Northern Powerhouse Rail. Halving the number of delays on the line would deliver an extra £62.7 million per year.

Welcome upgrades on the East Coast Main Line at Kings Cross to improve reliability, but the section north York urgently needs investment too to create reliable journeys across the whole network. networkrailmediacentre.co.uk/news/more-reli…
Very welcome funding which has potential to improve transpennine journeys from NE, but if services still connect on to ageing, overstretched ECML from York north benefits will be limited. Time for comprehensive investment to improve journeys across the whole north @FastTrackEC

Network Rail have released some of their recommendations for investment on the East Coast Main Line, the @NEEChamber will continue to work with our members and local stakeholders to make the case for investment neechamber.co.uk/updates/policy…
We have submitted our response to the National Infrastructure Commission’s call for evidence highlighting investment in the East Coast Main Line as key for the region’s economy. Infrastructure investment will be essential in the UK’s economic recovery from Covid.

Great to see the East Coast Main Line APPG making this intervention. This route is vital for businesses and the future of our region and is in desperate need of investment
