Network Rail has submitted proposals for a new station building in Ilford as part of the improvements being delivered for the Crossrail project.
The proposals include: a new spacious building, a new, larger ticket hall with a wide entrance and significantly longer gateline, and new lifts providing step-free access from street level to all platforms.
Further improvements will also be delivered to prepare the station for the start of Elizabeth line services including longer platforms, improved lighting, signage, customer information points, CCTV and overhead information screens.
From May 2017, the first new trains will be progressively introduced between Shenfield in Essex and Liverpool Street Main Line station. From May 2019, up to 12 Elizabeth line trains an hour will allow passengers from Ilford to travel right through central London, making it quicker and easier to get to a range of destinations across the capital.
