Crossrail Complementary Measures (CCM) - Harold Wood Station

Harold Wood Station has had a complete overhaul of the look, feel, and safety of the station.

This upgrade is part of a wider program of improvements around the station which will be served by the new Elizabeth Line (“Crossrail”).

This includes the creation of a new spacious station plaza with a new ramp providing step-free access, improved footways and wider crossings approaching the station, as well as stairs leading from Station Road to the ticket office and platforms.

The new station entrance plaza (which opened in May 2021) boasts a well-lit, safe and modern waiting area providing commuters and the wider community with a more pleasant experience when using the station and surrounding area.

Cycle parking is now accessible to all with additional spaces provided to further encourage cycling in the borough.

The works, which were completed safely during the Covid 19 pandemic, were funded by the Transport for London (TfL) Crossrail Complementary Measures programme.

That programme has also delivered other improvement works around Romford and Gidea Park stations in Havering.
