Introduction

Celebration Mile will create a walking route from Bridgwater railway station to the Docks. The route will help people learn about the town’s history.

It is one of 11 projects funded through the Bridgwater Town Deal. The programme brings £23.2 million of government funding to local projects. It will improve what the town centre offers for people who live, work and visit there.

Celebration Mile is a key part of wider improvements to the town centre. It will make it easier to get around and create a more welcoming place for residents, shoppers and visitors.
