Dalmarnock Station in Glasgow has been named Best Proposed Project at the Scottish Design Awards in Glasgow.
A top team from Atkins has designed a radical upgrade of Dalmarnock Station, the primary transport hub for Glasgow’s Commonwealth Games in 2014. The station will be completely remodelled, with a replacement footbridge, platform upgrades, new ticket office and step-free access, whilst creating a safer station environment with improved lighting and CCTV.
Says Stan Doyle, Regional Director, Atkins, ‘We are thrilled to be involved with Dalmarnock’s emerging reconnection to the city through the transformation of the present rail station into an important piece of public architecture.’
The station will serve three key venues for the Commonwealth games including the new National Indoor Sports Arena, the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome and Celtic Park.
