Plans for a major upgrade to a train station in Barry have been given the go ahead. The Vale of Glamorgan Council has approved plans for a transport interchange at Barry Docks train station.
The interchange, which will be located at the ground floor level of the council's car park area to the east of the Grade II listed Dock Offices, will include bus stands, taxi stands, a public drop off area, cycle parking and electric cycle hire provision. A central landscaped area will also be included in the development.
It is envisaged that this will potentially be used for a future development, notably a cycle hub and café. However, these would be subject to a separate planning application.
