star this property answer text <p>Department officials have met with a number of stakeholders and are aware of this aspiration. The stopping pattern will seek to balance the needs of all users of the route. We are currently in negotiation with the operator with regard to the short Direct Award for operating the East Midlands franchise, and full details of the award will be announced when successful negotiations have been completed.<br></p><p> </p><p>As you may be aware, we will run a full franchise competition for the long-term running of this franchise, to begin service provision in October 2017. Local stakeholder engagement is a key element of the competition, as is a public consultation which will help specify the long-term franchise.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Local authorities are also able to specify and fund service enhancements; recent examples of this include Cornwall, Lancashire and Burnley councils; it may be worth contacting Kettering Borough Council or Northamptonshire County Council to determine if such an enhancement is the best way to meet local transport needs. In doing so the Council(s) would discuss the feasibility of the scheme with Network Rail and the train operator. If the scheme is feasible and represents value for money, the Council would need to be prepared to fund the cost of the link from funding sources which are available for transport investment.</p><p> </p>
