  2. The #UK #Government has confirmed plans to reorganise local government in 14 more areas of #England, replacing two-tier council structures with new unitary authorities. The reforms aim to simplify services, reduce duplication and cut bureaucracy, with savings expected to be reinvested in priorities such as road maintenance and social care. Ministers say the changes will strengthen local leadership, support devolution and boost economic growth by improving planning, housing and infrastructure. Overall, 134 councils are expected to become 38 unitary authorities. The latest areas include #Kent and Medway, #Hertfordshire, #Nottinghamshire and #Nottingham, #Lancashire, #Devon, #Lincolnshire, #Gloucestershire, #Derbyshire, #Warwickshire, Worcestershire, #Oxfordshire, Leicester and Rutland, East Sussex and Brighton and Hove, and Staffordshire. Decisions on West Sussex and Cambridgeshire and Peterborough will be made later.

  3. #London Northwestern #Railway (LNR) will add 42,000 extra seats a week on services to and from London #Euston as part of a national timetable change starting on Sunday 17 May. The operator is completing the rollout of its new Class 730/2 electric trains on routes between London and Milton Keynes and along the Trent Valley Line to destinations in #Staffordshire, #Warwickshire and #Buckinghamshire.

    The longer trains will provide around 5,700 extra seats each weekday, increasing capacity on LNR’s Euston routes by 20%. Trains being replaced will instead be used to lengthen Birmingham services, creating more than 14,000 additional weekly seats.

    LNR is also offering 50% off advance fares to London for travel in June. Timetable changes include a new weekday direct service between Walsall and Euston and two extra Saturday evening services between Birmingham and Liverpool.
