To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate has been made of the potential impact of the Liverpool Street Station redevelopment scheme on passenger capacity during construction, including the proportion of concourse space and platforms expected to be unavailable.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate has been made of the potential impact of the Liverpool Street Station redevelopment scheme on passenger capacity during construction, including the proportion of concourse space and platforms expected to be unavailable.
Maintaining services during construction is a priority. The proposed phased approach keeps the station operational throughout. While concourse capacity will be reduced in phases during construction, passenger footfall has been modelled against this to ensure the station can remain operational and meet passenger need.
Only platforms 1-2 will close for a portion of the build to allow the mezzanine extension. Services from those platforms can be re-redirected to others to enable the works as no other platforms require closure.

A scheme of this scale requires a large amount of work to mobilise. Network Rail and Platform4 are working on the completion of the Section 106 following resolution to grant consent in February. The appropriate work on public sector procurement and market engagement with respect to consultants and construction will commence once a consent is formally secured. The station transformation takes four years across two phases (Bishopsgate and Sun Street Passage). This is programmed to minimise disruption and maintain train access throughout. The office then takes 3.5 years with total construction approximately 7.5 years.
The plans have been designed to keep the station open and operational. The detailed and careful phasing of the works means that compensation payments are not a material consideration and have been accounted for as part of the works. It is not a hidden cost.

It is very rare to close Liverpool Street on a weekend for longer than 27 hours and not on a Saturday. Network Rail will occasionally consider closing the full station on a Sunday as, with train operators, they can offer alternative travel options into London for passengers. However, there have been some full weekend closures of Liverpool Street station because of extensive eight-day engineering blocks undertaken over Christmas 2024 and 2025 to carry out major roof renovations at the station. Note that on these occasions, services terminated at Stratford, with connections into the Liverpool Street area available.
Network Rail analyses routes across the whole of the UK to minimise disruption to critical passenger and freight flows such as those to London Gateway and Felixstowe reducing the impact to a minimum as practically as possible.
Network Rail plans major engineering works to coincide with expected low overall passenger demand (for example, by not planning works on popular seaside routes in mid-Summer). Network Rail aims to maintain operational resilience, to minimise disruption, and to ensure the safe and efficient delivery of major engineering works, and timely completion of those works.
