Crossrail Architectural Model Case Study

Crossrail will deliver a brand new high capacity rail link which will run 118 km from Maidenhead and Heathrow in the West, through new twin-bore 21 km tunnels under Central London to Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the East.

Technology Centre have built a life-size station platform model to provide a tangible preview of the future Crossrail station environment and passenger experience. It aids future design decisions on aspects such as cladding geometry, flooring, lighting, platform edge doors, CCTV, seating, ventilation, signage, advertising and art.
