Dear All,
I am a member of the British Regional Transport Association(BRTA), which is a small unincorporated voluntary association which subject to resources, seeks to advance towards better public transport across the United Kingdom. Indeed, we are very keen to see a rolling programme of local line reopenings, rebuilds and select new builds of conventional railways for passenger and freight. We also campaign for an environmentally friendly, integrated, comprehensive, inclusive and affordable transport system including buses, cycling and pedestrian facilities.
I am now writing to say that the BRTA will be holding another Westbury Forum on Saturday, 9 May at the Railway Inn, Station Road, Westbury BA13 4HW https://www.railwayinn-westbury.co.uk/index (Phone 01373-228109) and I am wondering whether any of you would like to attend that meeting. Please do let me know whether or not you would be attending.

I attended a previous BRTA meeting at the same venue. I'll let Simon know that whilst I would like to attend, I will be meeting my cousins visiting the Netherlands from their home in the USA that day and have to turn down invite. I found the previous meeting very useful in helping to bring some "left field" ideas to the table there, giving me an opportunity to give them a thought and consider whether there was a logic in some of them. It was also an opportunity to network with a handful of others and to fill in those visiting on various current ideas with which we were all more familiar.
