Portishead go-ahead. - Posted: April 9, 2019 - 1:05 PM Quote and reply
The re-opening of Portishead rail line has been secured, after Government transport chiefs confirmed millions in funding for the project.
The final £31.9 million needed to plug a funding gap in the £116 million project, known as MetroWest, to re-open the line has been agreed by the Department of Transport meaning all the funding for the scheme is now in place.

However this is Portishead-"lite" with only enough work to permit an hourly service.
