Benefits for Leeds

  • We completed work to create the new Platform Zero in December 2020. This was the first new platform constructed at the station in nearly 20 years and it is now helping to reduce train congestion and meet the city’s growing demand for rail travel now and in the future.

  • We have remodelled the track layout between platforms 4 and 6 to bring smoother and more reliable journeys for passengers, by improving the way we move trains in and out of the west of Leeds station, reducing disruption.

    Throughout Christmas 2021, more than 200 railway staff worked over 10 days to remodel the track layout and complete the biggest track upgrade at Leeds station in over 20 years. Part of this work included:

    • Renewing over 200 metres of track to improve reliability
    • Installing over 1500 metres of new electric wires
    • Extending platform 7 at the east end of the station to allow for longer services to call at the platform.
  • Hilary Benn MP presents TRU with the first BREEAM Infrastructure V6 Whole Project Award (WPA) for Network Rail
