Avon Riverside is the newest station (and current terminus) of the Avon Valley Railway. It opened on 1 May 2004.[1]

Unlike the other two stations on the railway, there was no original mainline station here.

The station was built in 2004 by the AVR, to allow connections to the local country park and the river landing stage.

There is no vehicle access to Avon Riverside. Access is provided for cyclists and walkers by the Bristol and Bath Railway Path, and by train from Bitton.
