About Worcestershire Rail Trails
The project is presently in development stage, but will ultimately offer up four railway line’s worth of new walking routes which will run in parallel to these lines. The new guide materials will be freely downloadable to the public and suitable for both print, smart phone use and walking app use.
The project is being developed by partners Fiona Saxon for Worcestershire Community Rail Partnership, Lyndon Bracewell for Worcestershire Ramblers (the instigators of the project) and Graphic Design Lecturer and cartographer Andy Stevenson of the University of Worcester’s School of Art.
