Work began in January to improve the approach and entrance to Stafford Railway Station and was completed in May 2025.

It includes refurbishment of the concourse, new street furniture, increased disabled parking close to the station, road resurfacing and a larger relocated public short-stay car park. The scheme has also improved access for people with disabilities and is part of the wider transformation of the town centre - which has seen the £1 million revamp of Market Square, and work has begun on demolishing the Guildhall Shopping Centre and derelict former Co-op department store.

The station is the gateway to Stafford town and sits adjacent to Victoria Park which has retained national recognition this year as one of the best parks and open spaces in the UK.
