PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Waterloo Station (31 October 2019)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made of the capacity relief created at Waterloo station from the proposed crossrail 2 project.

Asked by:
Damian Hinds (Conservative)

Answer

Crossrail 2 could provide transformational uplifts in capacity, connectivity, and quality of life for those travelling into and across London from the South West Main Line (SWML). The scheme could help to ease pressure at Waterloo, potentially reducing national rail arrivals by more than 15% across the three-hour weekday morning peak.
