Funding support from us, Devon & Cornwall Rail Partnership, and Cornwall Council.

We're hoping it will become part of the Service Level Commitment (plus an earlier start too, back to April)

Excellent news, RichardB!  Wink

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post - a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London, depending on context) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: Stop, Look, Listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.
