Crossrail 2 October 2015 – Stations
This Crossrail 2 document is entitled A Typical Station.
Read the document and you’ll see that a typical station has the following.
- Two 250 metre long platform tunnels with platform edge doors.
- Several cross tunnels
- Shafts at each end of the platforms for ventilation and evacuation.
It does look as if they’ve gone for the simplest design possible, that meets all needs and regulations.
I’ve been in two Crossrail stations and it does seem that this design is simpler.
