TPE issues New Year ‘do not travel’ advice following flooding in north of England | TransPennine Express News
TransPennine Express (TPE) is urging customers not to travel until after midday on Wednesday 1 January as persistent heavy rain has caused flooding on several routes – primarily in the north west.
The flooding is causing significant issues in Greater Manchester and Cheshire and is impacting many service across the major trans-Pennine routes.
With the heavy rain set to continue for several hours, further flooding is likely and rail travellers have been advised to delay journeys, at least until the afternoon.
Andy McClements, Customer Experience and Transformation Director for TransPennine Express said: “We are urging anyone travelling this morning across the affected routes to defer their travel or claim a refund.”
Customers can check their services via the TPE website: www.tpexpress.co.uk/travel-updates or at www.nationalrail.co.uk
