Full Steam Ahead For Eric Parry’s Crossrail Scheme

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Building Design.

These points are made in the introduction.

  • Plans for a nine-storey Eric Parry scheme above a Crossrail station in the City of London have taken a significant step forward.
  • Transport for London inked a deal with Aviva for the overstation development at Liverpool Street station.
  • It is one of 12 developments TfL is planning above and around Crossrail sites.

It illustrates how Crossrail is leading to a vast amount of development along the route.

How many cities in the UK and around the world, could benefit from their own cross-city rail line?

Aberdeen, Birmingham, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, Liverpool and Newcastle have them of various standards, but in some cities getting across the city is a nightmare on public transport and people drive.
