Nelson Bus and Rail Interchange

The existing site was located in the heart of Nelson adjacent to the Arndale shopping centre off Broadway, a busy road running alongside the town centre. There were also a number of small local businesses adjacent together with a Public House which was located within the existing site boundary.

The external area adjacent to the new Interchange was to be upgraded in conjunction with the new station building whilst maintaining traffic flow to Broadway and pedestrian flow around the site

The road immediately adjacent to the site received a closure notice to enable resurfacing to be carried out but the pedestrian flow was maintained at all times together with access to all properties and shops. The access to the existing railway platform and to the public house was also maintained at all times.
