Station car park shut in March for works - but nothing has been built yet

Since the closure, local residents have expressed frustration, noting that while plans for 74 new homes were approved, no physical construction has begun for months.

Housing provider Pocket Living cited the need for 'enabling works' as a reason for the car park's long closure, though it has left many commuters without convenient parking.

The car park, which closed in March, will remain shut until the end of 2026, impacting local commuters significantly with a dramatic reduction in available parking spaces.

Despite the ongoing construction delays, officials assure that Blue Badge users will still have designated parking available during the preparation and building phases.
