Worcestershire Parkway station serves as a ‘Park and Ride’ facility close to Junction 7 of the M5 in the Wychavon district of Worcestershire.
It opened in February 2020 and was the first station to be opened in the County for over 100 years. The station won three awards in the 2020 West Midlands Institute of Civil Engineering (ICE) Awards.
The station is staffed and is situated on the Cotswold Line between London and Hereford and on the CrossCountry mainline between Birmingham and Bristol (though the services which stop there are those between Nottingham and Cardiff). The current operator is GWR (Great Western Railway).
The Cotswold Line Railcard can be bought at this station.
The station is fully accessible and has accessible toilets.
There is no formal Community Rail activity at the station though the St Richard’s Hospice is planning to adopt it.
The Cotswold Line Promotion Group promotes the services through it.
