Station to close for nearly two weeks as town prepares for 250,000 visitors

West Kirby train station will be closed for nearly two weeks while the Open in Hoylake is held.

The closure is due to a temporary crossing being created across the train tracks for the international event which is expected to bring in 250,000 visitors to the Wirral town of Hoylake.

The station will be closed on July 12 from 7pm until July 25. Trains will run between Liverpool Central and Hoylake with a rail replacement bus service taking people to West Kirby train station. The bus stop will be situated outside Hoylake station.
