Morley train station: Plans for new building with shop and car park at train station in Leeds revealed

The site south of Morley Railway Station between the station and Valley Road is currently being used as a construction yard and paring for the ongoing railway works, as well as storage yard and parking for a number of small businesses.

A planning application submitted to Leeds City Council reveals the outline plans for the demolition of the current storage sheds for the construction of a new train station car park and building with shop and toilets on the plot.

The site is a former waste oil storage depot, and the tanks and infrastructure were removed several years ago.

Plans are currently in its early stages and does not include details on the proposed building or car park.

Morley station is due to receive an upgrade as part of the Transpennine Route Upgrade, with track drainage and platform work due to be carried out later this month.

The application is due for consultation on Monday, February 19, with a determination deadline set the following month on March 20.
