Due to changes made to the official Scottish Parliament website at the start of 2011, our parser that used to fetch their web pages and convert them into more structured information has stopped working. We’re afraid we cannot give a timescale as to when we will be able to cover the Scottish Parliament again. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

John Farquhar Munro (Liberal Democrat) | Question S3W-39646
To ask the Scottish Executive what further steps are needed for the reopening of Conon Bridge railway station; how the reopening process will be managed, and what the timescale is.
Keith Brown (Scottish National Party)
The steps required to be undertaken to enable Conon Bridge Station to be re-opened are:
| Network Rail Process | Timescales |
| Detailed Design Work | Up to 6 months |
| Procurement Stage | At least 6 to 9 months |
| Construction and Commission | Up to 12 months |
It is anticipated (subject to funding being made available) that Network Rail would take over the scheme as project manager to enable the procurement and construction work to take place.
