You'll be disappointed if you click that link now - the document has disappeared.

This?

Ah!

Thanks for the help everyone - copy now in the member's archive ((here)) and it will come up in the deep search content.  The copy is somewhat smaller than ChrisB's reported one which I suspect is print-ready rather than web - sorry, ChrisB, I suspect my limit on email is 8 Mbytes

My thanks too. I feel a bit silly for not downloading it myself.

I've just dug out this 2022 report into options for improving Westerleigh Jct - makes quite interesting reading.

It lists four options for three or four-tracking between Coalpit Heat and Westerleigh. One of these - a full grade-separated four-tracked junction - is ruled out. But three others, any of which would be a big improvement (guess which is my favourite!) are still in the running; one for further investigation and two for further progression:

(Police & Criminal Evidence Act - about)-1-ES1-Report.pdf" target="_blank">https://westerngatewaytransport.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/175662-NRD-WST-SWB-REP-EMF-000002-P02-B2E-Package-E-PACE-1-ES1-Report.pdf

This improvement is listed as 'due to commence' in 2030-2035, according to Western Gateway STB: https://haveyoursaywesterngateway.participatr.io/files/4109.Western%20Gateway%20SIP_accessible.pdf
