Bristol Temple Meads audio guide map

Improving accessibility during our station upgrades

Over the next few years, Bristol Temple Meads station is being transformed. Refurbishment of the roof and a full station rewire are well underway, and new entrances are being planned for the future.

Dozens of scaffolding towers have been erected throughout the station and will remain in place while the roof project continues.

To ensure the station remains as accessible as possible for all our passengers we are proud to have teamed up with the Bristol Sight Loss Council to create this audio map of the station. This is the first time an audio map has been created for use in one of our managed stations and we hope you find this guide helpful. We welcome any feedback you may have, please listen to File 10 for more detail on this.
