Rail Regulator publishes guidance on minor closures of stations
|
18 October 1999 A new document published by the Office of the Rail Regulator today aims to make it easier for station operators to understand the process involved in modifying part of a station. The document Closures of Parts of Stations is written in question and answer format to provide a simple and straightforward guide to assist station operators and other parties planning physical changes and improvements to stations. The step-by-step guide sets out the relevant provisions of the Railways Act 1993 in respect of minor closures and explains how operators can apply for a minor closure certificate. It also details what information should be provided by operators making an application and how the Regulator will handle the application.
