TICKET barriers could be installed at Swindon train station. Train operators First Great Western and First Great Western Link intend to install more automatic ticket gates at stations following a successful introduction at Paddington.

Glenda Lamont, director of commercial services, said: "We're currently drawing up our plans for

rail services over the next ten years. We are looking at where automatic ticket gates will benefit.

"The installation of ticket gates demonstrates our commitment to invest in station improvements and tackle fare evasion."
