Walkden Station To Get New PA System

I was delighted to learn today that GMPTA and Northern Rail have agreed to jointly fund a new PA system for Walkden station. The ticket offices at Walkden and nearby stations (including Swinton and Moorside) will also be upgraded to improve communication for those with hearing difficulties. These are small steps forward but they are nonetheless extremely welcome and will provide real improvements for passengers.

I’m glad that GMPTA and Northern Rail are beginning to recognise the work that is needed on the station. A big pat on the back should also go to the Friends of Walkden Station and the hard work they do in lobbying for station improvements on behalf of all station users – they have pushed station issues right up the agenda and they are starting to get results.
