  • Media Briefing Note: Crossrail Platform Model
    MEDIA BRIEFING NOTE: CROSSRAIL MOCK-UP PLATFORM MODEL Introduction: New Crossrail stations, costing in the region of £2bn, will be constructed along the central route at Paddington, Tottenham Court Road, Bond Street, Farringdon, Liverpool Street, Whitechapel and Canary Wharf. Main construction of the central London Crossrail stations will get underway in late 2011. Around 200 million passengers will travel on Crossrail each year. The new stations need to cope with large numbers of passengers throughout their life, be easy to navigate and have fixtures and fittings that look good, are easy to clean and are able to endure wear and tear. To create this transport legacy for London it is essential to ensure every fixture and component is fit for purpose, cost effective and built to last. To develop and test designs for the station platforms, a life-size ‘mock-up’ of a below ground Crossrail platform has been created. The mock-up has been built to help Crossrail understand how the new designs for new below ground platforms will look in real life and to determine from a practical perspective whether any design modification needs to be made ahead of station construction commencing. The mock-up will help inform final design decisions about the below ground station environment. It is critical that Crossrail gets the internal design of stations right as the new stations have been designed to last for the next one hundred years. It will also assist Crossrail to make the right decisions concerning inclusive design features to improve services for Crossrail passengers with restricted mobility or those with visual and hearing impairments.
