Westbury Station to benefit from pedestrian access improvements

Wiltshire Council has been awarded £8,000 to deliver an improved footway link between the station and the business, industrial and residential areas to the west of the station, centred on the refurbishment of the steps between Station Approach and the existing road bridge over the railway on Station Road.

Signposting of this link and beyond will direct visitors to the three business areas and one residential area, all of which are within walking distance of the station.

GWR Managing Director Mark Hopwood said:

“We are committed to improving the journeys of our passengers, as well as the economic prosperity and social footprint of the regions and communities we serve.
