Liverpool Street Station: Construction
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate has been made of compensation payments arising from the Liverpool Street Station redevelopment scheme to (a) train operating companies, (b) Transport for London and (c) other affected parties.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
The plans have been designed to keep the station open and operational. The detailed and careful phasing of the works means that compensation payments are not a material consideration and have been accounted for as part of the works. They are not hidden costs. Neighbouring interests have also been captured as part of the financial viability assessment and shall be negotiated at the appropriate time.
