Title: Filton Abbey Wood Footbridge Post by: Mojo on December 03, 2008, 18:08:41 Any users of the station will be aware of the appalling condition of the station footbridge which has lead to a number of accidents both this winter and last.
I've been informed by Linda Swainger (Bristol Parkway - Acting Station Manager) that this is due to be resurfaced shortly by FGW and she is awaiting a firm date from FGW's property department.

Good to here it might be fixed sometime. Title: Re: Filton Abbey Wood Footbridge Post by: Mojo on December 04, 2008, 16:45:38 A further update - work will commence on Mon 15 December, weather permitting.
