Accessibility upgrades to Tenby train station
The project will see the construction of a new accessible footbridge complete with lifts
Passengers using the West Wales station are set to enjoy more accessible journeys due to upcoming upgrades.
The project will see the construction of a new accessible footbridge complete with lifts.
Once complete, the upgrades will aim to 'make a real difference for disabled people, parents with pushchairs, and those carrying luggage in the busy town - helping to make rail travel more inclusive and convenient'.
The investment also supports wider goals to encourage public transport use and reduce carbon emissions across the region.
Network Rail’s contractor, AmcoGiffen, will begin setting up the site compound in December 2025:
This will include fencing off an area of the station car park near the air cadet huts, resulting in a temporary reduction in parking spaces.
“We’re delighted to be improving accessibility at Tenby Station, ensuring that all passengers can travel with confidence and independence,” said Helen Hodgson, Senior Sponsor, Network Rail Wales and Borders route.
“These upgrades will make a real difference for everyone using the station and reflects our commitment to building a more inclusive and sustainable railway for the communities we serve.”
Most work will take place during the day, though some overnight activity will be required while the railway is closed, for safety reasons.
The station will remain open to passengers while work takes place.
Planned working hours are as follows:
Daytime: 7:30am to 6:00pm
Overnight: 10:00pm to 6:00am
Work will continue throughout 2026, with the new facilities expected to open by Christmas 2026.
