Fresh delay until line's last two stations open
The Journal
|July 05, 2025
TWO of the remaining stations on the Northumberland Line railway will not reopen to the public until 2026, it has been confirmed.
It comes just a week after officials at Northumberland County Council said the stations at Northumberland Park and Bedlington were on track to open this year.
The stations at Ashington and Seaton Delaval have been open since November, while Newsham in Blyth followed in March. But Blyth Bebside which had been due to open this summer is now slated to open “later this year”.
The latest delays on the £300m railway were revealed by council leader Glen Sanderson at the latest meeting of Northumberland County Council.
Speaking on a report highlighting the council's achievements over the past 12 months, the Conservative leader pointed to the successes of the railway line but also revealed the news that the stations had been delayed.
