Dear Neighbour, Crossrail programme – Brentwood station works update Network Rail is undertaking essential improvement works in your area as part of the Crossrail programme. The new railway will link Reading and Heathrow in the west to Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the east, via new tunnels under central London, and will be known as the Elizabeth line. Current work at Brentwood station is focussed on the completion of platform extensions and installation of Customer Information Systems. Please see the table below for further details of our upcoming works in your area. We will be undertaking our works during daytime working hours wherever possible however, due to safety constraints and the need to keep the railway open as much as possible, some work will also have to be carried out during weekends and nights.
