This project encompasses the relocation of rail platforms, construction of a new bus interchange, taxi rank, formalised car park, and improved Active Travel links. The selective procurement process employed a competitive flexible procedure, finalising in an award to Balfour Beatty Rail Limited on 27th May 2026. The contract, valued at over £9 million, began on 27th May 2026 and is set to conclude by 30th July 2027, with works classified under the 'works' category, crucial for the railway station infrastructure improvement in the region UKL14.
