Default Croxley rail link additioanl funding.


The Lea Bridge station is a reopening, using the existing platforms. A
better comparison might be the all-new station at Southend Airport, which
cost £16m in 2011. Allowing for inflation, the new stations for 8-car
trains might cost £20m apiece, plus a few million each to upgrade two
existing stations, so the stations probably account for ~£50m.


They are very expensive platforms then.

Slightly more than platforms, as I'm sure you already know:
