• Taplow: two new lifts and a footbridge providing step-free access to platforms, refurbished ticket hall and information screens, refurbished waiting rooms and toilets.
Transport for London will also build a brand new station building at Iver, replacing the current structure that dates back to the 1920s.
Val Shawcross, Deputy Mayor for Transport, said: "I'm delighted that four more stations are becoming step-free for the first time.
"The Elizabeth line is going to transform travel across the capital and it's only right that every station will have step-free access. It's vital that our transport network is accessible to all and that's why we're investing more in making our stations step-free than ever before."
Steve Hollingshead, Murphy's Chief Executive Officer, said: "We're extremely excited to be working with TfL on a scheme which is of enormous importance in improving accessibility. This project was a key target in our ten-year plan and we feel very passionately about our ability to deliver. With our self-delivery model across power, rail and piling we are well placed to provide world-class infrastructure for passengers along the Great Western Route."
Work will begin in February 2018 with site surveys taking place at every station. The main works are due to start later in spring at Taplow station.
