Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander announced that the feasibility study for these upgrades will be funded through part of a £92 billion investment allocated to road and rail projects. The DfT's Access for All fund will finance these improvements. Other stations like Raynes Park are also being considered for upgrades to ensure full step-free access.
