Transport for London (TfL) has appointed Construction consultant Aecom and architect Weston Williamson & Partners (WWP) to deliver a feasibility study for the proposed Bakerloo Line extension.
The Bakerloo line opened in 1906 and now runs from London’s north-west suburbs to inner city south-east London, where it ends at Elephant and Castle. TfL is planning to extend the Bakerloo tube line south from Elephant & Castle to Lewisham, with new stations such as Burgess Park, Old Kent Road, New Cross Gate, and Lewisham. Aecom and WWP will carry out an eight-month feasibility study for TfL into the proposed four new stations. The new line could be running by 2040.
WWP is the lead architect for the project and will focus on the design aspects of the study. Aecom will be responsible for all engineering matters, including civil, structural, mechanical and geotechnical engineering, as well as stakeholder engagement and consent. WWP has also appointed London Bridge Associates (LBA) to provide specialist constructability and fire safety input for the study.
