Construction photos – 2026 – click on a photo to enlarge

Construction work began in May 2026 at Portishead, preparing to change the road layout so as to enable the station to be built. At Pill the old Station House has been demolished to make way for the future small station forecourt. Compounds have been built at various places along the line. All old track has now been removed. These photos will be updated as work progresses.
