"The final cracked glass panels were replaced while the station was closed for over five weekend days in March, with the main concourse designated as an exclusion zone so the work could be completed safely overhead."
"Much more natural light is already flooding into the station, with the full effect to be seen once all the scaffolding is taken out."
"The new panels, along with drainage improvements across the roof, will also help to keep everyone moving safely by reducing leaks onto the concourse and platforms."
"The Liverpool Street roof refurbishment project will continue this year, with works including continued drainage improvements, scaffolding removal and replacing the decorative wooden valance at the end of the trainshed after a full restoration."
Network Rail has finished replacing cracked glazing panels at Liverpool Street station, significantly improving the train shed's brightness. The final replacements occurred over five weekends in March, with safety measures in place. Earlier, discolored panels above platforms 1-10 were replaced, covering an area equivalent to 8.8 Olympic-sized swimming pools. The new panels will reduce leaks and enhance safety. Ongoing refurbishment will include drainage improvements and restoration of the decorative wooden valance, with Morgan Sindall Infrastructure as the contractor.
