EL7 Rail and Bus Improvements
The Council and its partners the GLA, Transport for London, Network Rail, and Abellio Greater Anglia (train operator) are working together to replace Angel Road station, supporting the regeneration of Meridian Water and wider area.
Changes include the following:
- Angel Road station has been replaced with a new and improved station located further south, named ‘Meridian Water Station’, creating an integrated transport hub with the new bus interchange on Meridian Way. This has enhanced access to the station and greatly improved the experience of public transport users, providing an immediate connection between Meridian Water, Edmonton Leeside and the wider North London region;
- Lengthening of the platforms to the south of the North Circular (A406) to create new entrances on both sides of the railway to the east and west which will connect to the Central Spine (see Policy CL6);
- Improved bus interchange and bus standing connecting Meridian Water to the wider North London region;
- Provision of real time information to improve the experience of public transport users;
- Safe, secure and Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) compliant accesses integrated with the station; and
- Disabled and staff parking provision.
This policy should be read in conjunction with Core Strategy policy 26.
