Plans include biodiverse wetland area and plaza
HS2 has unveiled images of plans drawn up by Wilkinson Eyre and landscape practice Grant Associates for the public realm around the new Old Oak Common station in west London.
The public realm proposals include new public parkland with a viewing platform over a small wetland area and station plaza. It is planned the park will also be used for a series of pop-up markets.
WSP顾问也参与了规划工作，在今年夏天晚些时候提交给规划当局老橡树和公园皇家发展公司之前，将进行为期四周的公众咨询。
Residents will also be asked for their views on transport plans for access to the station which includes a bus depot with green-roofed shelters and indoor bicycle parking with wide cycle paths.
HS2 minister Andrew Stephenson said: ”At Old Oak Common, we’re not just building a world-class transport hub, but supporting one of the largest regeneration projects in the UK.”
A Balfour Beatty/Vinci/Systra team officially began work to build the new station - also designed by Wilkinson Eyre - last month.
