We are carrying out accessibility audits at all stations in Great Britain. Around 95% of these are complete and the data will be made publicly available once the project is complete.

We are also assessing over 300 nominations for Access for All funding for the period 2024-29, including a nomination for Castle Cary, should further funding be made available.
