Extending The Elizabeth Line – Rebuilding Shenfield Station

I have a feeling that Shenfield station will become a bottleneck on the Great Eastern Main Line.

• I feel that both passenger and freight traffic will increase through the station in the next ten years.
• I also feel that there is a possibility that the Elizabeth Line will be extended to Southend/Airport/Victoria and/or Beaulieu.
• Yesterday, I changed between a Southend and a Lizzie Line service, which meant down in one lift and up in another.
• With more and more housing likely to be built in the area, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a lot more parking.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see the station needing to be rebuilt and expanded in the next few years.
