Bermuda park railway station


Bermuda Park railway station is a railway station in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, England. It serves the Bermuda Park Industrial Estate, on the Coventry to Nuneaton Line between the existing stations at Nuneaton and Bedworth. Funding for the new station was approved in December 2011, along with that for the new Coventry Arena railway station. Both stations opened on 18 January 2016.

Contents

A planning application for the station was submitted to Warwickshire County Council in June 2012. Warwickshire County Council subsequently submitted an application to Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council for the station in November 2013.

Work on building the station started on 6 October 2014. Work was announced as "nearing completion" in March 2015, with piling completed ready for the platforms to be installed. Having originally been scheduled to be completed by the summer of 2015, the completion of the project was delayed several times. The eventual opening date of Monday 18 January 2016 was announced by train operator London Midland on 15 January 2016.

No station has existed at this site before, but the former Chilvers Coton station, which British Railways closed in 1965, was about 12 mile (800 m) to the north.

Services

One train per hour calls in each direction Mondays to Saturdays throughout the day. Sunday services do not start running until just before noon, but then run on the same frequency as on weekdays thereafter until early evening; they then drop to two-hourly until end of service.
