Google has agreed to stop hyphenating the name of Bradford on Avon, a town in England. The move comes after a 130-year campaign by residents and local leaders.

The town's name has been written as 'Bradford-on-Avon' since its founding in 1896, with the hyphens separating the two parts of the name. However, Google has agreed to remove these hyphens from their search results and maps.

This decision was made after a long-standing campaign by residents and local leaders who argued that the hyphens were unnecessary and caused confusion for visitors to the town.
