The fund for the station was applied for by Telford & Wrekin Council’s investment and business support team in 2020 on behalf of the Friends of Wellington Station.

Delivered through West Midlands Railway customer and communities' investment fund, it will see significant improvements being made to the station as part of a project named by the Friends group, Wellington Ways.

The initiative is a practical and visionary project which includes some much-needed improvements to the station, including new signage, improvements to the steps linking the rail and bus stations, a secret garden and refillable water points installed on both platforms.
