Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what estimate they have made of (1) the total cost of construction at Old Oak Common Great Western rail station, and (2) the total time for construction from the beginning of works to the opening of the station for passengers.

Old Oak Common is being designed and built as a single, integrated station, with a budget of £1.67bn (Q3 2019). There is no separate cost for the conventional station. Enabling Works at Old Oak Common started in 2018 and permanent works started in 2020. The station works will continue until opening for passenger services in 2029-2033. The total time is therefore between 11 and 15 years.
