Train Crew and Catering Building and Ancillary Works Schedule 17 Plans Update

What we are doing

You’re invited to a public drop-in event at the Old Oak Common Station site on Wednesday 5 November to find out about updates to our plans for the new building. This will provide temporary respite accommodation and catering for train crews once Old Oak Common Station is complete and in operation (application reference number: 23/0160/HS2OPDC).

A Schedule 17 Plans and Specifications request for approval was submitted to Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) on 19 July 2023 under the above planning reference.

The revised plans are with the OPDC again for consideration, following comments received from the public and interested parties at the time, including further issues which have arisen.

The plans enable Old Oak Common Station to serve as a temporary terminus for HS2’s London to Birmingham route, until the section of the route from Old Oak Station to London Euston Station is operational.

You’ll be able to see key elements of the plan and speak to experts from HS2, BBVS and designers, WSP and Wilkinson Eyre.

The drop-in will take place on:
Date: Wednesday 5 November 2025
Time: 5pm – 8pm
Location: Visitor Centre, Old Oak Common Station
Site, Old Oak Common Lane, NW10 6DZ

HS2 is undergoing a comprehensive reset to ensure it can be built efficiently and for the lowest reasonable cost. This work is being carried out in stages and will be completed in 2026. We will provide you with updates on the reset and what this means for our plans to build the railway in your area.
