First look at Leyton tube station's 13 million step-free makeover
Briefly

Leyton station on London's Central line is undergoing a £13 million renovation to enhance accessibility with step-free access through new lifts and increased ticket facilities. The upgrade includes more ticket gates, staircases, and a new overbridge to manage expected congestion due to new housing developments. Construction begins on February 17 and will stay open during most of the process, though some weekend closures are expected. MP Calvin Bailey supports these improvements, emphasizing their importance for local transport and accessibility for all.
These much-needed improvement works to Leyton station are great news for local residents. Local transport provision is vital for our community, and I welcome the works that will be carried out to improve the accessibility of this station for all users.
This progress will make a real difference to local residents, allowing everyone to travel more independently and confidently.
