THE Keighley & Worth Valley Railway (KWVR) has been awarded £1 million towards the costs of the bridge 27 renewal, from the Government’s Community Ownership Fund.
Sourced from the central government’s levelling up funding, the grant will be used to help ensure a vital piece of the West Yorkshire heritage line’s infrastructure is fit for the future. The rebuild will be the KWVR’s largest ever – and most expensive – civil engineering project in the preservation era.
