Wilton Junction Train Station

John on a Zoom call with Rob Hibberd, Pauline Church, Paul Johnson, Robert Murphy, Richard Gamble and Andrew Ardley

Excellent meeting this afternoon to discuss the proposal for a new Wilton Junction train station ahead of an application to the government's Restoring Your Railway Fund. Great leadership on this from Cllr Pauline Church - Working for Wilton and TransWilts chairman, Paul Johnson.

It was then straight into a joint meeting of the Chamber of Commerce and Salisbury BID to discuss latest developments with supporting businesses in the pandemic and to answer questions from local members.
