Award RIBA London Award 2024

Abbey Wood Station provides a major interchange between national rail services and the terminus of one of the eastern branches of the Elizabeth Line, with capacity for 20,000 at peak hours. The station has been in planning since 2008.

The project team at Fereday Pollard Architects, who have seen it through to completion, impressed the jury with their enthusiasm and knowledge of its operations. It stands out for its accessibility and legibility. Successfully addressing complex urban design issues, it creates a generous civic plaza and delivers a seamless experience for passengers beneath the great sweep of its timber roof.
