The station has a second medium wave radio transmitter in the Preston area which will continue to broadcast programmes. Listeners in Preston should try 855 kHz medium wave.
John Clayton, managing editor, BBC Radio Lancashire said: “There are now a number of ways to listen to BBC Radio Lancashire, including FM and digital radio, and now Freeview and the BBC iPlayer Radio app.
“The investments we have made in digital radio, including supporting the recent addition of several digital radio transmitters to improve reception and adding BBC Radio Lancashire to digital TV, mean that fewer and fewer people are listening to medium wave and the BBC has to reassess whether our medium wave broadcasts still represent value for money.
