"Dear Sir/Madam,

Following the news that High Brooms station saw one of the largest turn outs of community support in its Access for All bid, Greg has written to the Secretary of State for Transport, Huw Merriman, to further boost the prospects of the station being selected for funding.

The Access for All bid submitted by Network Rail to build a bridge between platforms at High Brooms station has seen its chances of success boosted by local support.

Tunbridge Wells is the third most popular origin point for flexi-season tickets on the Southeastern network, the rail operator has confirmed.

The station mural erected in 2017 to celebrate the history of Tunbridge Wells has been re-erected following structural work on the bridge above the platforms.

Following his submission to Network Rail in support of their new proposal to build a bridge between platforms 1 and 2 with lift access, Greg provides an update to constituents on his ongoing campaign to improve access at the High Brooms station. 

Greg has submitted his letter of support for Network Rail's renewed bid to improve access at High Brooms Station, after he successfully campaigned for the station to be awarded Access for All Funding worth £785,000 in 2020. 

Tunbridge Wells MP Greg Clark announced today that success had been reached in saving the 285 bus service which had been expected to end on the 1st April.
