Merseyrail is making the changes to the timetable to improve the reliability of services and reduce the levels of disruption that have been seen in recent months. This will mean a more reliable service for all passengers.

Reducing the frequency at the two stations with the lowest footfall means Merseyrail can make improvements to improve the punctuality of services on the Chester line.

A more frequent train service (six trains per hour Monday – Saturday 07:30 -19:00) is available at other stations near to Bromborough Rake and Green Lane for those who may require it.
