Search the Public Notice PortalThe MP for Witham, Priti Patel, has met with Network Rail representatives for an update on the Liverpool Street Station redevelopment.
Network Rail announced plans to redevelop the station last year, aiming to accommodate the increasing number of passengers.
Currently, more than 100 million people use the station annually, and this figure is predicted to exceed 140 million by 2050.
The proposed plans aim to reduce congestion, including an expansion of the concourse area.
However, the initial scheme submitted in 2023 faced objections, including from heritage bodies.
In November 2024, Network Rail launched a consultation on revised plans that aim to enhance passenger experience while preserving the site’s historical significance.
After the meeting, Ms Patel said: "Given the importance of Liverpool Street for rail users traveling into London from stations along the Great Eastern Mainline, such as Hatfield Peverel, Witham, Kelvedon and Marks Tey, this project needs to focus first and foremost on passengers and improving the everyday experience for those using the station.
"Already London’s busiest station, and with passenger numbers expected to continue to grow, we need a redevelopment plan that will deliver the investment in infrastructure that is needed to unlock future economic growth and really improve transport connectivity between Essex and London."
