Bermuda Park railway station will be a railway station in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, England.[1] It will serve the Bermuda Park Industrial Estate, on the Coventry to Nuneaton Line between the existing stations at Nuneaton and Bedworth.[2] Funding for the new station was approved in December 2011, along with that for the new Coventry Arena railway station.[3]
A planning application for the station was submitted to Warwickshire County Council in June 2012.[4] Warwickshire County Council subsequently submitted an application to Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council for the station in November 2013.[5]
No station has existed at this site before, but the former Chilvers Coton station, which British Railways closed in 1965, was about 1⁄2 mile (800 m) to the north.
Work on building the station started on 6 October 2014.[6]
Work was announced as "nearing completion" on 19 March, piling has been completed ready for the platforms to be installed. [7]
