NEW aerial footage reveals the developments on the Warrington West Station.

Ahead of the proposed summer opening, council officials say the requirement for overnight works should now be less frequent.

During the Christmas period there were big changes on site, following the installation of the lift shafts, footbridge and staircases.

Scaffolding has now been built so that the cladding can be installed onto the lift shafts.

Work will now continue on the platforms with completion of the retaining walls, cladding and installation of the various cabling and equipment required.

The new £19 million station will take passengers direct to Liverpool, Manchester and Warrington.
