Decongestion Scheme via Multi Asset Framework Agreement (MAFA)
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 & 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.
Estimated project value of £4.2M
