Commitment to make bus station a lot better
Reporting on a meeting of the bus-station working group, Tim Kirton, projects and funding officer for Alnwick Town Council, said: “Arriva and Morrisons reiterated their intention to undertake repairs and improvements, hopefully before the summer.
“This depends on two things – a new lease being singed between Morrisons and Arriva, which is expected to be done in the next fortnight, and secondly, final approval of works and associated spend from Arriva, which is expected to happen. After that, they should be on site fairly quickly.”
