Waiting in the rain will be a thing of the past with the opening of a new shelter at a tiny railway station. Transport operator First Great Western's decision to put up the shelter at Avoncliff near Bradford on Avon follows a regionwide vote.
The shelter has been designed by the Avoncliff Community Group - made up of local people who keep an eye on the station. Volunteer supporters, rail user groups and other community representatives along the length of the Bristol to Weymouth Heart of Wessex line were asked to vote on which projects should receive funding, with the Avoncliff shelter coming in the top three in the Community Wishlist programme.
