answer text <p>The Government is committed to delivering major rail infrastructure improvements in England and Wales including the north of England. We are committed to investing in the transport that really matters to people. Network Rail are developing options to improve the capacity and resilience of Sheffield station, that can be delivered in the shorter term within the existing constraints of the station footprint, including platform extensions and track upgrades. This work will underpin the future improvements set out in Network North including electrification of the Hope Valley Line, delivering increased capacity and journey time savings.</p> more like this
