In 2001 the station was selected to be reopened as Ashley Down and used as a stop for the proposed Bristol Supertram project. This was planned to operate as a 30-minute service between Broadmead Shopping Centre and North Bristol, but the project was cancelled in 2004. Construction on the new station as part of the National Rail network started in March 2023. References
