Upcoming Events 

GWR Webinar

This summer, the Bristol Rail Regeneration Programme will be taking a major step forward with the replacement of Bristol East Junction at Bristol Temple Meads. This will increase capacity to allow for additional services and new stations through the MetroWest initiative backed by the West of England Combined Authority and will mean better performance and fewer delays in future. 

The junction is being upgraded over an eight-week period from Saturday 10 July to Friday 3 September. Some journey times will change, and customers will need to check their journey before travel.

Join GWR for a webinar to find out more about the development.
Time: Jun 24, 2021 12:00 PM London
