Met with Greater Morpeth Development Trust who have created ambitious plans to renovate the derelict station buildings at Morpeth and bring them back into use. This follows a meeting SENRUG initiated a couple of years ago with Northern Rail, ourselves and GMDT in which we jointly viewed the derelict buildings. The plans GMDT have now formulated include an improved entrance and a proper cafe / snack facility at the station which is most welcome. In general, SENRUG strongly supports GMDT’s plans though there will be an issue over parking spaces, and SENRUG believes more spaces must be created in conjunction with the proposal.
