With ref. To the article on the new bridge crossing the lines at Newport Station.(Fri.). Of course, this isn’t the first bridge at the station. One crossed from the back of the station ,next to the two small shops ,and came down in ( then) Cambrian Rd.between the B.R. parcels depot and Station entrance now the council offices and the (then) Post Office. This was essential, as the valleys busses disembarked in Devon Place at the back of the station and it facilitated direct access to the (then) town centre .
