Labour delivers Crossrail


Gordon Brown has given the go ahead for the £16 billion Crossrail Project. This is fantastic news for Hanwell, which will benefit from a direct train service from Hanwell station into the heart of London and beyond with vastly reduced journey times and double the capacity.
A twice hourly service between Heathrow and central London will also stop at Ealing Broadway, Bond Street, Tottenham Court Road, Farringdon and Liverpool Street among other stations.
Working with the local residents Hanwell Labour will continue to press for a Sunday service on the Greenford branch, Sunday opening of Hanwell and West Ealing stations as well as lift installations at both.
We will also be pressing the Council to deliver improvements in access to the station in terms of local connections to all forms of transportation.
