London<\/a> Liverpool Street station has taken one step closer to a major revamp. <\/p>\n

Changes at the UK\u2019s busiest railway station<\/a> have been revealed to target \u2018significant overcrowding\u2019 and to future-proof the transport hub, Network Rail<\/a> said. <\/p>\n

Liverpool Street station, which has links to the Elizabeth line<\/a> and Stansted Express and carries around 90,000,000 passengers annually, currently has just one public lift.<\/p>\n

Plans for the major revamp have been in the pipeline since 2023, but they have now progressed further after Network Rail submitted a revised plan yesterday. <\/p>\n

The upgrades were unveiled as the station has been plagued by overcrowding, causing difficulties for people with disabilities<\/a>, luggage and small children and a \u2018confusing\u2019 layout for passengers, Network Rail said. <\/p>\n

Here is a roundup of all the changes coming to Liverpool Street station if plans are approved.<\/p>\n

Network Rail said the changes submitted to the City of London are designed to \u2018future-proof\u2019 the station for 200,000,000 passengers in the decades ahead. <\/p>\n

The latest tweaks to the plans mean the size of the new office tower block above the station will be reduced, a redesign of the station entrances to better match the historic architecture and landscaping and benches around the Kindertransport Statue. <\/p>\n
