Royal Oak

www.crossrail.co.uk Helpdesk 0845 602 3813 Crossing the Capital Connecting the UK

Crossrail’s tunnels through centralLondon would surface near RoyalOak. The tracks would rise to joinexisting tracks at ground level before continuing west.

A temporary worksite is proposed. It would be wholly within the railwaycorridor and enclosed by hoardingsand safety barriers during theconstruction period. A cut-and-coverstructure between Royal Oak portaland the ventilation/escape shaftfurther to the east (where the boredtunnels would begin) would allowtunnel linings to be delivered by railrather than road.

Royal Oak Portal


Traffic and AccessCrossrail will consult local authourities onproposed traffic routes. It is currentlyanticipated that lorries would use the existingramp off the Great Western Road (A420T).

A new access road would be constructed to the Paddington Central development toenable the Westbourne Bridge shaft to bemaintained. Hard standing would be locatedbetween the ventilation terminal and the shaftto provide parking space for maintenanceand emergency vehicles.

Westbourne Park Reversing FacilityAt the start of Crossrail services, westboundtrains would terminate at Paddington.

As there is insufficient space to providereversing facilities at Paddington, trainswould continue empty to Westbourne Parkwhere a purpose built reversing facility is proposed.

During the construction of the reversingfacility, provision would be made for future through services towards Heathrowand Maidenhead.

Bus Garage and Taxi AreaThe existing bus storage and washingfacilities would need to be reconfigured as a result of the Crossrail proposals. The existing buildings on the taxi area would be demolished to make way for the portal worksite.


C2.1


The Royal Oak/Westbourne Bridge Portalwould consist of three elements.

■ An open cut would be built. It would incorporate a ramp that would take the Crossrail tracks down from ground level to the tunnel portal

■ A 270m long cut and cover box section

■ A shaft at the tunnel eye would be used as a working shaft during construction of the running tunnels

On completion of the tunnelling, the shaftwould be fitted out as a ventilation andemergency intervention shaft in accordancewith London Fire and Emergency PlanningAuthority requirements.

Emergency escape stairs would also beprovided at the tunnel portal.

When tunnel driving commences, it isanticipated that the excavated spoil would bebrought out of the shaft at the tunnel eye byhoist and transferred from a spoil stockpile byroad or possibly conveyor to the railhead tobe loaded onto trains for onward disposal.

Proposed Emergency Escape Stair at portal

Crossrail’s shallow cut-and-cover tunnelswould occupy the space between Lord HillsBridge and Ranelagh Bridge north of RoyalOak Station. A road to the escape stairs atthe tunnel portal would provide access to thisspace. Following completion of work the areawould be landscaped.

The surface structure associated with theventilation outlet and the emergency accessstairs would be constructed in the areabetween Ranelagh Bridge and WestbourneBridge and would be accessed from HarrowRoad under Westbourne Bridge. The proposedlightweight metal buildings are designed assculptural objects to be seen from passingtrains on the approach to Paddington Stationand from overlooking properties to the south.

C4.1

Paddington


Building Crossrail Paddington StationPaddington Station is a Grade I listed building. The wall and therailings on Eastbourne Terrace and the departures road canopy(which form part of the listed structure) would be removed for construction of the Crossrail Ticket Hall. The railings wouldbe carefully dismantled and Crossrail would examine how therailings could be reused. The canopy would be dismantled and re-erected.

Crossrail recognise the architectural and historic importance ofthe existing Main line station and would propose a design that isappropriate to the location.

The main worksite would be on Eastbourne Terrace, includingthe departures road. A box structure for the station would beexcavated from within this worksite.

Site offices, storage and delivery areas would be establishedwithin the car park behind the Great Western Railway parcelsoffice, off Bishops Bridge Road. Smaller worksites would belocated during the construction period at Praed Street and onthe London Underground District and Circle line platforms.

Traffic and AccessCrossrail will consult local authorities on proposed traffic routes.It is currently anticipated that two-way traffic and access tobuildings in Eastbourne Terrace would be maintained throughoutconstruction. Eastbourne Terrace would be reduced to one laneof traffic in each direction and subject to a number of phaseddiversions. Praed Street would have short-term closures at itsintersection with Eastbourne Terrace. Vehicle access to theproperties on the southern side of Eastbourne Terrace would befrom Eastbourne Mews or Chilworth Mews.

On completion of the work, new pedestrian links would beprovided between the existing Main line station, acrossEastbourne Terrace, through to the “light spine”. The departuresroad would be reinstated, accommodating taxis and generaltraffic as required by the long term proposals for the area.

Taxis and BusesTo enable the station to be built, it would be necessary totemporarily relocate taxis currently using Eastbourne TerraceDepartures Road to the site of a parcels depot to the north of the station. Buses would need to be relocated during the periodof the Crossrail works. Crossrail would continue to developproposals in consultation with Westminster City Council,Network Rail, the local community and other stakeholders.

C5.1

The Crossrail station would be located in a largebox beneath Eastbourne Terrace. It would contain two ticket halls with links to the existing station. A predominantly glazed “light spine” would run thelength of the box allowing natural light into thestation. Escalators and lifts would provide accessto the Crossrail platforms.

Interchange with the Bakerloo line would be providedby a new passageway between the Crossrail andBakerloo line platforms. Access to this passage wouldbe provided by a staircase at the Bakerloo line end.

Interchange with the District & Circle line would beprovided from the eastern end of the Crossrail stationby a short passage at basement level. This passagewould provide level access to the northbound District& Circle lines, with access to the southbound Districtand Circle lines from a new footbridge and lifts.

Provision would be made to enable future interchangewith the Hammersmith and City line to be providedfrom the Crossrail western ticket hall.

Ventilation would be incorporated within the stationbox at both ends of Eastbourne Terrace. The stationventilation would provide draught relief and assist in maintaining passenger comfort within the station.

Naqshad Bir Jid-tareen La qorsheeyey (Proposed Shaft Design (1))

Bir Jid-tareen Hanbury

C27.1

The Hanbury Street shaft would be used as a startingpoint for tunnel boring machines (TBM’s). The TBM’swould be delivered to the site and installed at the baseof the shaft.

Hanbury Street Shaft would be one of seven pointsalong the route used as a starting point for TBM’s.

Following the estimated 18 months of surface activityto construct the shaft, it would be acoustically cappedand the TBM’s would leave the site as they start theirtunnel run.

A total of four tunnels would be constructed - twotowards Fisher Street and two towards Whitechapel.

After the TBM’s have left, all tunnelling activitieswould be serviced from a temporary constructionshaft and worksite at Pedley Street, connectedunderground to the base of the Hanbury Street shaftby a temporary tunnel.

The overall period for the excavation of the maintunnels would be approximately two years. During thisperiod, no surface construction activity is currentlyproposed at the Hanbury Street site.

Throughout the works there would be a 24-hour on-site security presence. The site would also be hoarded.

Following completion of the tunnelling, some of theTBM equipment would be retrieved from the top of the Hanbury Street shaft over a period of a few weeks.

There would subsequently be a fit-out of the permanentshaft equipment over a period of three months. The onlyactivity following this would be periodic inspection andmaintenance of the shaft equipment.

Crossrail has appointed architects to develop designproposals for replacement buildings to surround theshaft in keeping with the surrounding area. The proposalswould be considered in consultation with the LondonBorough of Tower Hamlets.

Pedley Street Shaft


To reduce the need to use lorries to removematerial excavated from the tunnels, a 6 metre diameter temporary constructiontunnel is proposed to connect the base of the Hanbury Street shaft and the main Crossrailrunning tunnels to a temporary constructionshaft on disused railway land adjacent to theGreat Eastern Main Line at Pedley Street.

Material excavated from the running tunnelswould be removed underground via thetemporary tunnel and lifted to the surfacethrough the Pedley Street shaft. From thePedley Street shaft the excavated materialwould be transferred by a conveyor runningeast along the Great Eastern Main Lineviaduct to a train loading facility at SandEnd sidings, Mile End (South of MeathGardens). The conveyor would be shroudedto control noise.

While construction of the Pedley Streettemporary shaft and temporary tunnel isbeing undertaken, the conveyor to allowexcavated material to be removed by rail would not have been completed.Consequently, material excavated from thetemporary shaft and temporary tunnel wouldbe removed by road out of the area duringthis period.

Segments that would form the running tunnelwalls and all other materials would bedelivered to the Pedley Street site andunderground to the main Crossrail runningtunnels through the temporary tunnel.

Current locations being considered forexcavated material removed by rail from Sand End sidings are:

� Pitsea Landfill, Essex� Rainham Landfill, Essex� Ockendon Landfill, Essex

Durward Street Shaft


Swanlea SchoolThe proposals for Durward Street Shaft would requirethe temporary rearrangement of the access toSwanlea School and some ancillary buildings.Crossrail would provide a new entrance at DurwardStreet for Swanlea School following completion of thestation works.

Crossrail are consulting Swanlea School and TowerHamlets Education Department on the proposal toprovide the school with an enlarged playground thatwould include all of the unused area of Essex Wharf.Crossrail would need to keep a right of way foraccess to the emergency escape site.

The potential exists for the Durward Street entrance tothe school to be developed into a high quality spaceas illustrated. A “light well” bringing natural light intothe Crossrail station could provide a localarchitectural feature.

Building Crossrail Whitechapel StationThe ticket hall and station tunnels would beconstructed principally from two worksites. Theeastern worksite would be located in the southernarea of Sainsbury’s car park. A smaller worksite forDurward Street Shaft would be located within theEssex Wharf area. Footway closures and localisedroad narrowing would be required. Most of theSainsbury’s car park area would be used by Crossrail

during construction and would revert to car parkingon completion of the station.

It is possible that the remains of a 16th centurytheatre exist at this location. Crossrail would evaluatethe site prior to construction.

To ensure the safe running of the railway, the LondonFire and Emergency Planning Authority require tunnel access shafts to be provided at no more than 1 kilometre apart.

Crossrail’s proposed routes to Shenfield and Ebbsfleet would divide underground in the area ofStepney Green. A ventilation shaft would be requiredfor each branch.

The proposed location for the ventilation shafts wouldbe a strip of park between the existing Astroturf pitchand Garden Street.

The shafts would also provide emergency access and escape for the Crossrail tunnels. The ventilationequipment would be located in the two shafts.

Each shaft would contain a staircase, some of the fan equipment and would be located over each of the tunnels.

The basement would house fans to push air into orout of the tunnels as required. The basement wouldhold noise reducing equipment and mechanical andelectrical equipment for the operation of the fans.

These shafts would be used temporarily asconstruction shafts to enable the tunnel junction to be built.

Stepney Green Shaft


Part of the Stepping Stones Farm would be needed for a period during the construction of the shafts.Crossrail are consulting with the London Borough ofTower Hamlets regarding the proposals on any protective measures that may be necessary.

Stepping Stones Farm is a Site of Importance forNature Conservation (Borough level) which would betemporarily affected by construction activities.

The site contains archaeological evidence of a 16thCentury manor house, a non-conformist meetinghouse (c.1674), the remains of a congregational church(c.1862) and the remains of a Baptist college (c.1811).The construction of the shaft may result in loss of aportion of the 16th Century Manor House, but thiswould be subject to further archaeological study. Thedesign of the construction worksite has been alteredto ensure that all other remains on the site would beprotected from damage.

Traffic and AccessCrossrail will consult local authorities on proposedtraffic routes. It is currently anticipated access to theworksite would be principally from Stepney Green.

Mile End


Mile End Sidings RailheadThere are relatively few locations near the Crossrailalignment where rail sidings and a railhead (the pointwhere the trains are parked and loaded) for excavatedmaterial removal can be established. One location isat the Sand End sidings, Mile End.

The proposed sidings rail head would be locatedopposite Meath Gardens, Mile End, on the south sideof the railway (west of the Grand Union Canal).

The conveyor from the Pedley Street worksite wouldrun along the top of the current Eastern Main LineViaduct moving excavated material east to theproposed railhead, where it would be transferred towaiting trains for onward removal via the GreatEastern Main Line to landfill sites outside London.

A holding area for excavated material would beestablished in an area of Mile End Park to the west ofthe Grand Union Canal. This would enable tunnellingoperations to continue during times when trains maynot be available. Material would be moved west fromthe park to the sidings by a second conveyor acrossthe canal to the railhead. The holding area would behoarded throughout the works. The remainder of thepark would remain open during the works.

This holding area would also be used to holdexcavated material from the construction ofWhitechapel station.

The railhead and holding area would be in operationfor approximately four years.

Traffic and AccessCrossrail will consult local authorities on proposedtraffic routes. It is anticipated that lorries would enterand leave the site from a new access point on GroveRoad, approaching from the south.

Initially it would be necessary for excavated materialfrom the construction of Whitechapel station and the Hanbury Street shaft to be removed by road to the proposed holding area at Mile End Park, as thetunnels would not yet be available.

Environmental IssuesThe likely environmental effects include the temporaryvisual intrusion around Mile End Park resulting fromthe presence of stockpiles and conveyors. The conveyor between Pedley Street and Mile EndPark is likely to be a relatively small and unobtrusivestructure, mostly located on the existing viaduct.

It is acknowledged that Mile End Park is designatedas a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation(Borough Level).

All proposals are being developed in consultation with the relevant bodies including the LondonBorough of Tower Hamlets, British Waterways and the Environment Agency.

Mile End Park Shaft


The location and appearance of the shaftabove ground has been designed to blend inwith the existing open space and the currentproposals to extend Mile End Park Stadium.Consequently, the shaft would be locatedclose to Burdett Road.

The surface structure of the shaft has beendesigned to enable it to be used by membersof the public as a platform to watch eventsand activities in the park.

Mile End Park is a Site of Importance forNature Conservation. The shaft forms a newpermanent structure in an open setting andas such would affect the landscape of thisopen space and its users. There would be an area of permanent and temporary works,but care has been taken to locate the shaft inan undesignated corner of the park.

Traffic and AccessCrossrail will consult local authorities onproposed traffic routes. Crossrail anticipatessite access would be directly from the A1205Burdett Road.

To ensure the safe running of the railway, the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authorityrequire tunnel access shafts to be provided at nomore than 1 kilometre apart.

Lowell Street shaft would be located at 610Commercial Road, adjacent to the Limehouse Basin,and would incorporate infrastructure for tunnelventilation, access to the shaft and tunnels andpassenger evacuation in the event of an emergency.

To provide tunnel ventilation, the shaft building wouldhouse mechanical equipment and below ground fans.The intake and outlet for the fans would be at rooflevel. Intervention and evacuation stairs and a liftwould be provided within the shaft.

Evacuation from the tunnels would be completed in thecourtyard or in the area bounded by the DLR viaductto the south.

It is proposed that the site would be cleared of allbuildings with the exception of the listed water tower in the south eastern corner of the site.

Building Crossrail Isle of Dogs StationThe area of North Quay between Billingsgate and theDocklands Light Railway bridge would be used as the main worksite for construction of the station andtunnels west of the station. A second worksite wouldbe located within the car park of Billingsgate Market,at the eastern end of the North Dock. A watertightstructure known as a “cofferdam” would be constructedwithin the North Dock to enable the station to be built.

The tunnel boring machines for the drive to StepneyGreen would be assembled and launched from the site of the station. During the period of stationconstruction, access for vessels wanting to enterBlackwall Basin and Poplar Dock would be obstructedby the Crossrail construction work. Measures would betaken to protect the Grade I listed West India Quay.Banana Wall would not be demolished to construct theIsle of Dogs station and measures would be providedto protect the Wall during construction of the station.

Crossrail are currently carrying out surveys to determinethe aquatic ecology (water, wildlife and plants), waterquality and sediment within the dock area which wouldbe used to help formulate the constructionmethodology in relation to the draining of the part ofthe dock that would be within the cofferdam.
