London Liverpool Street station was the most used railway station in Great Britain in 2023-24, with over 14 million additional entries and exits compared to the previous year, totaling 94.5 million. This illustrates a significant recovery and growth in rail travel post-pandemic, highlighting the importance of continued investment in rail infrastructure.
Feras Alshaker from the ORR emphasized that these statistics are indispensable for understanding evolving travel patterns and the impact of new infrastructure like the Elizabeth line, which is reshaping passenger journeys significantly and driving increased station usage across the country.
After entering the top 10 for the first time last year, Tottenham Court Road jumped four places to third, gaining nearly 30 million entries and exits, showcasing how the Elizabeth line is influencing travel behavior and increasing footfall at specific stations.
London Paddington retained its position as the second most used station by adding six million entries and exits, reaffirming its status as a critical hub in London’s rail network.
