SPECIFICATIONS
The Crossrail programme is Europe’s largest civil engineering construction project. On completion it will connect London and the South East with a new high frequency railway.
Tottenham Court Road Station is one of London’s busiest, coping with over 150,000 passenger journeys per day. The Crossrail works at this station are tasked with totally redeveloping the station and associated tunnelling in a £1bn transformation providing congestion relief, delivering a bigger ticket hall, installing additional escalators and creating a new commuter interface with London Underground and Crossrail services. Due to the keen media coverage and PHD’s renowned presence and expertise in the rail sector, we are proud to have been commissioned as one of the first contractors on site to start the enabling works on this exciting project.
