Passengers at Godalming, Surrey, will benefit from a better, more accessible station after Network Rail officially unveiled a £4m (EUR 4.6 million) upgrade, which was completed four weeks earlier than planned.
The upgrades mean that passengers now have step-free access across both platforms in the station, via two 16-person lifts and a fully enclosed footbridge. The upgrades also include canopy extensions to shelter the path from the footbridge to the existing platforms canopies, and resurfaced platforms throughout the station.
“The upgrade work at Godalming is great news for residents and commuters using this busy station. The work has certainly improved the appearance of the site and will, I am sure, help with ease of access and users’ overall rail travel experience,” Jeremy Hunt MP for South West Surrey said.
