Friends of Bridgwater Station look at THE CELEBRATION MILE

Friends of Bridgwater Station is holding an important public meeting on Thursday 16th June. Phil Adams, Service Manager in charge of the Sedgemoor District Council’s “Celebration Mile” project, will provide an important update on progress so far, on this important plan to improve and enhance people’s first impression of the  town.

The  Celebration Mile project aims to provide a major face-lift to the rail station, and a route for pedestrians from the station to the Docks, celebrating the history of the town . 

It will give clear information to direct people to the town centre,  improve the station forecourt, ensure the area is safe and easy for all types of transport, and provide a new pedestrian and cycle link to replace the footbridge.

The meeting will be held at the GWRSA Staff Club (Railway Club), Wellington Road, Bridgwater, starting at 7.15pm.

Friends of Bridgwater Station was set up in 2012 to campaign for better rail services and facilities in Bridgwater.
