The Milford Haven Public Transport Interchange (MHPTI) scheme involves improvement works to the existing Milford Haven train station to create a new public transport interchange. This requires the relocation of the existing rail platform to allow for the provision of a new bus interchange, taxi rank, formalised car park, public realm spaces and improved Active Travel links. The platform relocation will also enable intercity services to and from London to use the station, in line with the Council’s and Transport for Wales’s long-term ambition to provide more regular rail services and better connectivity to more destinations.
The works include:
• Provide a public transport interchange including a bus focal point and coach pick-up / drop-off point connected to the station
• Provide an improved railway station
• Improve passenger amenities, facilities and security at the station
• Provision of a new car park with Electric Vehicle charging facility and taxi rank
• Improved built environment of station from a visual and landscape perspective
• Improve accessibility to transport facilities and the town core areas
• Improve Active Travel connectivity to the public transport interchange
• Create sustainable access links within and between the town core areas.
• Futureproof the railway by increasing patronage and supporting an enhanced railway service to Milford Haven (i.e. the London rail service)
• Connect Local Communities
• Limit the amount of environmental damage and emission from private vehicle usage, creating a greener way to travel.
