Bradford St James railway station is a proposed railway station which would be constructed in the vicinity of St James Market in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. This would replace the current terminus station at Bradford Interchange with a through layout as part of Northern Powerhouse Rail[1] enabling faster journeys from Bradford to Leeds and Manchester.

The proposed site would be at St James Wholesale Market.

Progress

In November 2023 the UK Government awarded £400,000[2] towards masterplan development for the station.[3] The upgrade of the line, and the funds to build the new station, are expected to cost £2 billion, with money released from the cancelled HS2 project.[4]
