High-speed rail could cause yet more disruption in Cheshire after the Government announced plans for extra infrastructure to be built.
Residents are being asked for views on the latest plans for HS2 Phase 2b, between Crewe and Manchester.
Today we have joined forces with media outlets across the North West to issue a rallying cry to the government to end rail services chaos in this region.
As part of a day of action, news titles across the region are starting a petition calling on ministers to come good on their “Northern Powerhouse” promise.
Nantwich firm Frank Olsen Furniture has earned a £25,000 investment from the Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund (NPIF).
The boost will support the company’s expansion from a start-up to a scale up business following a sharp rise in retailer demand for its products.
