Andrew's email to Mark Hopwood, CBE MD, GWR - Access to All – Trowbridge station

Subject: Access for All - Trowbridge station

 

Dear Mr Hopwood,

Thank you for your email of 6 April asking for my support for an application to DfT for AfA funding for Trowbridge station in my constituency.

The station serves the county town of Wiltshire and its surrounding communities. It is adjacent to a major new residential and commercial development which is in build on the redundant Bowyers site. The development will increase footfall at the station. 

Trowbridge has received Future High Streets funding aimed at improving the attractiveness of the town to draw people in, including by public transport. The railway station, already inadequate to meet the needs of the county town, will be in need of an upgrade, not least to improve accessibility. I commend your efforts to secure investment in it.

I very much support the application made with Network Rail to DfT for funding. 

Your sincerely,

Andrew Murrison
