It was rebuilt and reopened with two platforms as "Ashley Down" in 2024 by Network Rail.

In 2008, Greater Bristol was chosen as England's first official Cycling City, and this is part of a recently-completed section of a major cycling route into the centre of the city from the northern suburbs. It is also the site of Ashley Hill Station, which closed in 1964 after almost exactly 100 years of use. The path on the left crosses under the railway line to Station Lane and Muller Road. Seen from Station Road.
