STEEP steps leading to Taunton train station have been closed off for safety reasons.
The steps, which lead to the station from Kilkenny car park in Taunton, have been closed off to allow for emergency repairs.
It is not known how long the steps will be closed off for, but workers will be working to repair them.
A spokesman for Taunton Deane Borough Council said: "The steps have deteriorated and work urgently needs to be done.
"As a result the access is being closed with immediate notice.
"Taunton Deane Borough Council is responsible for the steps and would like to apologise for any inconvenience.
"Those using the car park can use the roadside path down to the station while the work is being carried out or the sloping path into Kingston Road.
"Great Western Railway is aware of the situation."
