The work compound has now been established and uses most of the car park from the road cross roads traffic lights end towards the old side gate station entrance. Despite, the site plan that they stuck up on posts and fence railings, there is no access from the steps leading down from Middlewich Road bridge. Yes, you can go down the steps but then you have to walk all the way round the compound in a big U shape to gain access to the current station entrance. Work is planned to start soon and last until July. No word on replacing the canopy back to it's full length nor any heritage considerations other than using a matching shade type of brick for the external brickwork. I will keep a watch on the work when I can.
