Part of £300m of works to update the station’s facilities in preparation for the arrival of the Elizabeth Line, the 20-week project will enhance capacity and step-free access to London’s West End with 24-hour trains during peak periods.

Its package involves public domain and highway construction as well as surface finishes, drainage, street lighting and hostile vehicle mitigation works for the tube station.

Michael Grogan, blu-3 Project Manager, said “blu-3 is proud to be involved in a project so vital to future-proofing the capital’s transport network, helping it to keep pace with increasing capacity demands.”
