Anyone who has visited Atherstone station in the past may know that there used to be a footbridge providing access between platforms up until recently.
Anyway London Midland decided to remove the bridge due to safety and rather than replace it they are using a road underpass nearby for platform access.
The road through the underpass is hardly used, but the pavement is narrow and although new lighting was installed by LM and pavement resurfaced, it just doesn't do the job.
A young guy was attacked though there last Autumn with a knife and it has put a lot of people off using the station and some of the locals are opting for the Bus to get to Nuneaton/Tamworth. There are quite often thugs hanging around the station.
What are the chances of getting a footbridge,ramp reinstalled?
