Hillingdon Council has approved plans for a major overhaul of Hayes & Harlington station.

The new glass and steel structure will create a landmark station that will be much more visible and prominent than the existing station.

A ticket hall will provide a more welcoming environment and a range of other improvements will be made to the station, including:

• A new footbridge with four new lifts to provide step free access to every platform

• A new waiting room on platforms 4 and 5

• Platform extensions and new and replacement canopies

• New lighting, customer information screens, station signage, help points and CCTV.

The new building, designed by Bennetts Associates, will be situated immediately to the north of the existing station and will replace a commercial property currently on the site. From the end of 2017, the station will be run by Transport for London as part of London’s integrated transport network.
