Proposed reopening
Plans to reopen the station in 2000 (at the same time as Brighouse railway station) were cancelled due to lack of funds.[1]
In 2006, Clayton Homes offered to build a station in return for planning permission for residential development.[2] This did not materialise but Calderdale Council continued consulting on possible plans.[2]
Reopening of the station is supported by the Halifax & District Rail Action Group and local campaign group "Give Elland a Rail Station".[1] The New Stations Study undertaken for West Yorkshire Metro in 2014 found that Elland provided the strongest business case of a potential thirteen sites on the Calder Valley line, and was recommended for further study along with stations at Haxby, East Leeds/Thorpe Park, and Cross Hills, with a projected cost of reopening of £6 million.[3]
In June 2017, the West Yorkshire Combined Authority allocated £20 million towards re-opening the station, with an estimated opening date of 2022.[4] In November 2017, the government announced Elland was one of four new stations proposed in the Government's ‘Connecting People: Strategic Vision for Rail’.[5] In 2021, a planning application was submitted for two platforms, lifts, and a 116 space car park.[6]
In March 2023, the planning application for the new station was approved and construction is expected to begin in 2024 for a potential opening date of December 2025.[7]
