PADDINGTON STATION / Royal Mail Group / Stanhope

Leading the station design of a major enhancement to the Bakerloo tickethall at Paddington Station. The proposal forms part of a larger Royal Mail Group development of the 1 London Street site led by Michael Aukett Associates.

Consulting with stakeholders, London Underground, Network Rail and Crossrail; HYLO established an outline design for the ticket hall. Proposals achieve LU’s long term aims for future capacity and step-free access at the station and allow future development of the Royal Mail Group site.

Working with MACE & Waterman’s engineers, HYLO is helping develop a construction methodology on this severely constrained site. A key requirement for London Underground is that the station is to remain operational throughout the construction.

HYLO has completed static analysis of the passenger demand figures and defined station planning requirements compliant with London Underground Standards.
