Bring Back Eurostar Campaign
We've continued to campaign for the return of Eurostar services to Ebbsfleet and are in regular dialogue with Eurostar and the government.
We'll continue to work with partners, including Kent County Council, Kent Invicta Chamber of Commerce, Visit Kent, Locate in Kent, neighbouring councils, and local MPs to ensure services at Ebbsfleet International Station return.
