Hillingdon Council has approved plans for the redevelopment of Hayes & Harlington Station for Crossrail.

The new station will be built north of the existing station by Taylor Woodrow.

The redevelopment will include a new footbridge and four lifts, a waiting room, platform extensions and a new canopy.

Work at Hayes & Harlington Station is due to start in Spring and it is expected to last 18 months.

Transport for London will run the new station when it has been built until Crossrail take over in 2019.

This is right on our doorstep, our office used to be in Hayes before we moved to Uxbridge, very exciting stuff.
