Wellington Station
The Wellington and Cullumpton Stations Project is an opportunity for two new train stations to improve connectivity, leisure, and business opportunities across the South West. Having being a part of the 'Restoring Your Railway' scheme that was axed by the Labour Government, I am determined to get this over the line, working closely with Richard Foord MP for Honiton and Sidmouth.
