Salisbury Coach Park Reopens After Renovations

Salisbury Coach Park has officially reopened after being closed for over 11 months due to extensive renovations aimed at enhancing facilities for coach passengers. Originally expected to take four months, the project faced delays from poor weather and a sewage leak. The revamped coach park now features six spaces for drop-offs, ten longer-stay bays, improved drainage and lighting, and a vibrant mural by local artist Fred Fieber that reflects local ecology. Additionally, a small pocket park and a welcome area with seating and information have been created near a new footbridge. The Mill Stream Approach Bridge has also reopened to traffic, restoring access to the Central Car Park. Wiltshire Council emphasizes the importance of these upgrades in boosting Salisbury’s appeal as a prime tourist destination.
