Interchange and strategic transport hubs

Introduction

The East West Main Line’s potential to connect to services on other main lines is significant. But for this to be realised, our strategic transport hubs on the main line should ensure seamless interchange between rail services for all users.

Frictionless interchange not only applies not to onward rail journeys, but with other modes, including for the ‘first mile, last mile’ of journeys.

Several of our urban centres are currently considering or developing transformational mass rapid transit schemes. East West Rail must offer seamless interchange with these schemes.
