Planned reopened station
There are proposals for new stations on the Cotswold Line at Withington and Chipping Campden. A long-standing proposal for a new station at Worcester (Norton) Parkway where the line crosses the Birmingham and Bristol Railway has now substantial funding. It is anticipated that the proposal will go to the planning stage early 2015. The plans and proposals are now available on Worcestershire County Council website and the public consultation period has begun.[2]
