Editing Trowbridge (section)

==Transport==
[[Trowbridge railway station]] was opened in 1848 on the [[Westbury railway station|Westbury]]–[[Bradford-on-Avon railway station|Bradford-on-Avon]] section of the [[Wilts, Somerset and Weymouth Railway]]. Today this line forms part of both the [[Wessex Main Line]] (Bristol–Westbury–Southampton) and the [[Heart of Wessex Line]] (Bristol–Westbury–Weymouth), while the original route to Melksham, Chippenham and Swindon is used by the TransWilts service. Other services from Trowbridge join the [[Great Western Main Line]] at [[Bath, Somerset|Bath]] and [[Chippenham]], or join the [[Reading to Taunton line]] at Westbury.

Trowbridge is about {{convert|18|mi}} from junction 17 of the [[M4 motorway]] at [[Chippenham]]. The [[A361]] runs through the town, connecting it to [[Swindon]] to the north-east and [[Barnstaple]] to the south-west, while the north–south [[A350 road|A350]] primary route to [[Poole]] passes close to the town.

The nearest airport is [[Bristol Airport]], which is {{convert|30|mi}} west.
