The £44 million project at Pontoon Dock station aims to install six escalators and a new mezzanine level, enhancing accessibility and reducing congestion. Transport for London (TfL) anticipates the work will start next summer and finish by late 2028, with the station remaining open during most of the construction. The upgrades are prompted by expected passenger demand growth of 415% due to nearby housing developments. Funded largely by third-party contributions, the project is expected to support local regeneration efforts, adding new shops and jobs to the area.
"The transformation at Pontoon Dock will make life easier and more comfortable for customers, through reduced congestion and enhanced accessibility. It will also play a central role in supporting important regeneration in the local area."
"Most of the project will be funded by third-party contributions, including those from Homes England, Greater London Authority (GLA) and developer Lendlease."
