Abstract

This paper presents an overview of the redevelopment of the London Bridge national railway station as part of the delivery of the Thameslink Programme. The Programme’s objective is to significantly improve the capacity of the existing rail services and experience for passengers. The paper illustrates how the design solution has been informed by a rigorous process of assessment, evaluation and validation using a combination of static and dynamic station capacity assessments. This approach has enabled Network Rail to make the design process as efficient and cost effective as possible, and ensuring that passenger flow and experience is at the centre of the design process.
