New station key to future transport hopes
Ormskirk Advertiser
|November 06, 2025
A NEW railway station on the outskirts of Skelmersdale could be a cost-effective “compromise” solution to bringing trains back to the town after a near 70-year absence.
A bus service would connect the town centre site to any new station at Pimbo
That was the verdict of Lancashire County Council's cabinet member for highways and transport, who said a parkway-style station with regular connecting bus service into the town centre would be the most likely way of securing government funding to realise the long-held ambition of reconnecting Skelmersdale to the rail network.
