Train operator Great Western Railway is warning customer that there will be no parking spaces in the station car park off Richmond Place from the evening of 23 June, reopening on Monday 1 July.

GWR Station Manager for South Devon Stephanie Chapman said:

“Dawlish station has seen some great improvement over the last few months, including becoming fully accessible, and it is good to see this continue with the resurfacing of the car park.

“We do however need to warn customers that there will be no parking at Dawlish from Monday 24 to Monday 1 July, while this work is carried out, and we’re sorry for any inconvenience that will cause you.”

The works will see the car park resurfaced and repainting of the parking bays and is the latest in a round of improvement for the station, including: a new foot bridge and lifts making the station fully accessible; improving the distance between platforms and trains, while reconstructing the seaward platform; and multimillion pound resilience works to the sea wall as part of the South West Resilience Programme.

The work is due to be complete and the car park reopened for the start of service on Monday 1 July.
