The scheme involves improving the existing train station to create a comprehensive transport hub, including a bus interchange, taxi rank, car park, and better connectivity for sustainable travel. Located in Pembrokeshire, UKL14, the project adheres to Welsh devolved regulations and is procured through a competitive flexible procedure. Key procurement stages include planning in May 2025, tender in October 2025, and award in March 2026, with the contract completion anticipated by July 2027.
