Balfour Beatty has been awarded a £70 million contract to fit out Crossrail’s new station at Woolwich.

As well as the station fit out, Balfour Beatty will deliver works at the North Woolwich and Plumstead portals either site of the Thames Tunnel.

Work is set to begin later this month ready for Crossrail’s official opening in 2018.

Andrew Wolstenholme, Crossrail chief executive, said: “Crossrail will help to transform Woolwich, supporting regeneration, reducing journey times and creating new transport links for local people.

“From 2018, up to 12 services an hour will allow passengers to travel to Canary Wharf, the City and the West End without having to change trains.”
