Bradford had hoped for a new station as part of a Northern Powerhouse Rail high-speed line
She made the new pledge on Monday, telling ITV: "It will stop at Bradford. I'm very clear about that."The prime minister said details for the new route would be set out "in due course". "If the government follows through on this, their plans for growth and productivity start to look much more credible."Bradford was always seen as a prime candidate for Northern Powerhouse Rail.
She doesn't talk about upgrading the old line but implies it'll be a brand new separate railway - akin to London's Crossrail project, now known as the Elizabeth Line.
