At East West Railway Company (EWR Co), we’re passionate about hearing what local representatives, and their communities, think about East West Rail (EWR) so we can, together, successfully build a project that will bring faster journey times, lower transport costs and ease pressure on local roads. This will bring people closer to the things that matter most – jobs, friends, and family.

We’ve set up 15 Local Representatives Groups along the route where we will deliver the East West Rail project to help local communities connect with us through their representatives. The Groups include Councillors, Parish and Town Councils and representatives from EWR Co.

This is the page for the Bedford Town Group. The Group brings together all the Councillors of the area within Bedford Town, centred around the proposed new Bedford and Bedford St Johns Stations, the improvements to the existing railway and the delivery of a new section of railway.
