COMMUTERS are being warned parking spaces will be reduced at Taunton train station’s multi-storey car park while electrical work is carried out.
Maintenance to electrical circuits and light fittings will reduce the number of available bays over coming weeks.
To keep disruption to a minimum and ensure as many bays as possible are available, Great Western Railway (GWR) says work will be completed in stages starting from Monday, September 23.
The following car park decks (with approximately 60 parking spaces per deck) will be taken out of service as follows:

- Ground floor: Monday, September 23 – Friday, October 4.
- First floor: Monday, October 7 – Friday, October 10.
- Second floor: Monday, October 14 – Friday, October 25.
- Third floor: Monday, October 28 – Friday, November 1.
GWR station manager Adam Hopkins said: “This essential maintenance work will reduce the parking available at this busy station and we would like to thank customers in advance for their patience.
“Please allow a little extra time to catch your train, especially from Tuesday to Thursday when the car park is a little busier.”
Vehicles will still be able to circulate through the car park and the dedicated disabled parking bays, drop off and pick up areas are unaffected throughout the work.
Should the car park be full, the nearest alternative public car park is Kilkenny Car Park, Clifton Terrace, TA2 7BL. GWR car park season ticket holders may also park in Tiverton Station Overflow 2 car park for no additional charge.
