"The run-down area will see 12,000 new homes and 40,000 jobs in Hammersmith and Fulham, if the Department for Transport (DfT) approve its high-speed rail (HS2) plans in December.
"It would result in a new transport hub and major interchange station linking Great Western and West Coast mainlines, Crossrail, Bakerloo and Central underground lines and Heathrow Express as the HS2 travels from London to Birmingham in just 49 minutes.
"A major regeneration of the area, dubbed 'Park Royal City', designed by world-renowned architect Sir Terry Farrell would revolutionise one of London’s poorest areas."
(These are somewhat fanciful short-distance light-rail routes;
'Stonebridge Park to Kensal' is maybe 'on-street-running', and
the other route may be 'segregated', partly on viaduct.
These may link to the 'North and West London Light Railway'!) |
