THE PIT STOP

The Pit Stop will work closely with In Situ to help re imagine the old signal box in Brierfield train station. The new signal box will include new event spaces that helps connect the locals and travellers along various modes of travel routes around the site. Through workshops aimed at generating and representing ideas, we will implement a primary intervention, developing alongside interested local community to ensure space use.
