Feasibility Study Progress.
Here is the official statement from Scottish Borders Council about the award of the contract for the feasibility study.
With the feasibility study now going ahead thanks to funding committed by the UK and Scottish government, the Campaign continues its work, and we encourage you to sign up as Campaign members, or renew your membership if it’s lapsed. See https://campaignforbordersrail.org/support/membership/ for details.
Notes for editors:
The Campaign for Borders Rail is a long-established pressure group promoting the benefits of modern train services for communities across the Borderlands. Our grassroots campaign saw the rail link from Edinburgh to the Scottish Borders reopened. Now we’re lobbying to extend the popular Borders Railway onward to Hawick and Carlisle. Visit the Campaign website for further details.
