Future Plans
Network Rail are considering rationalisation of this line alongside replacement of the Loughor railway viaduct and re-doubling of the track at Gowerton, planned to happen in 2013. This could mean more traffic being diverted via the South Wales Main Line and Gowerton station.
The rail transport campaign group, the Railway Development Society has proposed instead that this link be restored for passenger services including building stations to serve Llandarcy, Morriston and Grovesend.
