Decongestion Scheme via Multi Asset Framework Agreement (MAFA) for Network Rail
Due to space constraints Charing Cross Station concourse had become highly congested. As a result passenger circulation had become severely hindered, especially during peak periods. Network Rail commissioned VolkerFitzpatrick (Principal Contractor) to produce a viable scheme to reduce Station congestion. Works Included:
Demolition of the existing Island retail building on the concourse.
Adaptation of the existing ticket barrier line to provide additional ticket gates and improve passenger flow.
Rationalisation of the existing concourse furniture such as ticket vending machines and seating.
Rationalisation/upgrading of the way-finding signage within the concourse.
A listed building application technical support report was prepared by RKG and submitted by Network Rail.
Project Value: £4.2m
