To be held somewhere in Taunton. A diary date for a representative of each of the many user and specialist public transport groups across the South West.

Confirmed to be at the Firepool Innovation Centre - where we met last time, and just across from the station.

Also 24th October 2025 - probable date for the Autumn General Meeting - just being "pinged" around the TWSW» (TravelWatch SouthWest - website) team

Tickets (free) via Eventbrite .. for organisations, groups to send reps and for unattached individuals with a strong interest.  Please ask me if you need a more formal invite.  Worded that way to avoid getting the entire membership of the Stogumber Night Bus Campaign coming along and drowning the meeting - a rep and an understudy is plentry.

Date: Friday, 21st March 10:30 - 15:30

Location: Firepool Digital Innovation Centre

About the Event:

Welcome to TravelWatch SouthWest's Spring General Meeting for 2025. Join us for a gathering of travel enthusiasts, industry experts, and passionate advocates. Share your ideas and connect with like-minded individuals.

Do the proposed arrangements by Government for a "single directing mind that will run our rail infrastructure and passenger services in the public interest" work for the best interests of passenger group aims and amibitions?

Spatial planning and delivery of local aims - will planning processes change work for a better and more sustainable public transport experience?

The full Agenda will be released shortly.

I'm sorry for that confusion, ChrisB:  I've now moved your post here and will amend the topic headings for those historic TravelWatch SouthWest meetings.

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament) 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.
