SYSTRA worked with Network Rail to deliver architectural design and project management for this ambitious renovation programme for the southern concourse in less than one year.

The work involved the reinvention of the late 1960’s wooden roof and updates to the station entrance, Southern concourse retail space, ticket gateline, and public WC facilities. New lighting and a gold entrance façade adds to the passenger experience, and all completed whilst the station remained open to the public 24/7.

TWO PRESTIGIOUS AWARDS

From the end of 2019, SYSTRA’s work was recognised, first by being shortlisted in the Partnership Initiative of the Year category at the British Construction Industry Awards (BCIA), then with a a prize awarded by the Railway Industry Association to the project manager Emily Shaw.
