While I understand the argument for convenience, I doubt moving Cramlington Station a mere 200 metres is going to make it more 'central to the town' as a whole. 

I might be wrong like!

SENRUG are unbelievable. 

The existing station, is in a place which is easy to access, via road crossings etc. What SENRUG actually want is an interchange with local buses.... Right, these buses that stop almost a mile away on the other side of Manor Walks.... In a place which is 'central to the town'.

The footbridge, where they want the station to be, is actually quite a long walk from the main shopping area (Asda, Sainsbury's etc). 

The existing station, is about as 'central to the town' as the proposed one. 

They wanted more parking spaces at Morpeth, following a new car park. Now that Northern Rail have introduced £2 all day parking tickets, there's now loads of spaces to choose from in the old car park!

FTPE services to Morpeth? That will be a good thing as long as FTPE accept Northern tickets...

I'm not that familiar with Manor Walks or Cramlington Town Centre in general so I'm going to accept what you say is correct (not that I have any reason to doubt you, of course).

I'm all for transport integration and the positioning of interchanges which allow users to effortlessly switch between different modes of transport is key to partially achieving that aim, however, in the case of Cramlington, if the bus station is located on the other side of Manor Walks, would it not be just as easy to relocate the bus station adjacent to where the station is currently located?

The railway station is currently located at Nelson Village, about 3/4 of a mile away from the existing bus stops at Manor Walks. There is a pay and display car park, Royal Mail sorting office and houses taking up the rather limited amount of space there. Service 58 already stops close to the station at Nelson Village, moving the bus station to the railway station will be quite, well, odd as NCC will be forced to install bus stops at the north end of Manor Walks (at Sainsbury's) (if there aren't already some), as it is quite a distance to walk.
