Transport for Wales (TfW) will also be transforming the disused building on platform 1 at Flint station; creating two new community rooms, a staff room and a new passenger waiting room. 

Lisa Cleminson, TfW's stations director, said: “We are delighted to be progressing with this project. These station improvements offer tangible benefits to our customers and visitors to Flint station.

"The investment in the disused building at Flint station will improve the way the station looks and will provide more commercial and community opportunities. This significant investment will introduce an array of new and upgraded facilities and will really enhance the overall customer experience.”

The improvement work is currently scheduled to be completed by the end of 2023. TfW is encouraging customers to plan in extra time to allow for potential disruption.
