Kidderminster Railway Station - Future

Future

Plans are in hand to replace the small brick station building with something echoing that of the adjacent SVR building. As well as this, the plans envisage a large bus exchange, improved car parking and "drop off" areas. Future planned track alterations will see a facing cross-over installed along with appropriate signalling that will permit passenger carrying trains to pass from NR metals to those of the SVR. At present passengers have to disembark at the NR station and walk to the SVR station whilst their train is shunted across. Trains from the SVR carrying passengers can already pass onto NR metals unhindered.

A service to/from NR metals to Bewdley has also been proposed over the years. This is finally seeing some more local interest.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    Do not discourage your children from hoarding, if they have a taste to it; whoever lays up his penny rather than part with it for a cake, at least is not the slave of gross appetite; and shows besides a preference always to be esteemed, of the future to the present moment.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    Where have those flowers and butterflies all gone
    That science may have staked the future on?
    He seems to say the reason why so much
    Should come to nothing must be fairly faced.....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Although I’m trying very hard
    To sound unlike a birthday card,
    That’s all this is: so you may find it
    Full of all that lies behind it
    Admiration; friendship too;
    And hope that in the future you
    Reap ever richer revenue.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
