Bridgnorth Station

Road works in Bridgnorth – September 2026

From Monday 14 September through to Friday 2 October, highway improvement works are scheduled in the Bridgnorth town. This will involve some road closures at different times and on different days. Roads effected include Underhill Street, Hollybush Road, New Road and West Castle Street.


Shropshire Highways have said that access to the SVRs Bridgnorth station will be maintained. On some days this will be via high town as roads in low town will be closed, but diversions and temporary lights and signage will be in place.


If you visiting the railway and starting from Bridgnorth, please allow plenty of time as traffic delays are expected, during these dates. More information is available on the One Network website.

From the platform and footbridge, you can enjoy a wonderful view of the locomotive works, where you might catch a steam engine taking on coal and water, or being maintained by the Railway’s engineers. Make sure you visit either the GWR-style refreshment room or the on-platform pub, the Railwayman’s Arms, which has been serving pints since 1861.

Take the high-level steel bridge from the station to walk into Bridgnorth town. You can visit the ruins of a 12th-century castle and its gardens, take a trip on Bridgnorth Cliff Railway, Britain’s steepest inland funicular railway, and browse the town’s dozens of independent shops. There are traditional street markets on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.

Bridgnorth is served by several bus services. The SVR has a large car park at WV16 5DP with more than 200 spaces available at £4 per day. Disabled parking is available by following postcode WV16 4AX. Drivers of high vehicles such as camper vans must park in our lower car park (WV16 4AX) because of a height restriction on exiting the upper car park.
