SIR - You recently reported that Bradford councillors would shortly be discussing the redevelopment of Forster Square railway station.
How much more sensible it would be to develop one central Bradford Station than Forster Square, the Interchange and the new high speed station separately.
In my feedback on the Transport for the North (TfN) consultation, I pointed out that not having a connection between Forster Square and the Interchange damages the case for the high speed station.
Without this, it is quicker for anyone from Shipley and north to go to Leeds and change platforms rather than to change stations in Bradford for which the allowed time is half an hour.
Some of your correspondents seem confused over the route of the proposed new tunnel to the Interchange. It is not to connect the Airedale line from Forster Square to the Interchange; it is to connect the new high speed line from Leeds and would run presumably roughly from Laisterdyke to Clayton.
At the TfN presentation in February, we were told that the proposed route would be published in the autumn.
