This May, Nantwich South and Stapeley councillors, Geoff Smith and John Priest, and Connor Naismith MP visited the renewed site of Nantwich Station, which has recently been cleared and fenced off by Network Rail.

Following reports from concerned residents that rubbish had been left on the site, Geoff and John referred the case to Mr Naismith, who was able to request an update on progress from Network Rail.

Network Rail confirmed the area had been cleared and discussed plans to add screening to the inside of the fence surrounding the station, which have since been implemented.

A Connor Naismith spokesperson said: "We are pleased to have solved this issue through a collaborative effort across Mr Naismith's office and Cheshire East Council.
