Following the devastating floods in Workington, the main road and pedestrian links across the river were either lost or declared unfit for use.
Network Rail’s response was to build a temporary station and open it to the public within 7 days !
JNP Group rose to the challenge by providing structural details and on-site advice and supervision to enable Network Rail to fulfill its obligation.
The station was opened as promised at 9.00 am Monday morning.
