Around £20million will spent to increase capacity and improve step-free access at Tottenham Hale station.

Transport for London (TfL) has announced the plans as part of its Tube Improvement Programme.

The proposed station improvements are funded through £20m from TfL’s Unlocking New Growth Areas fund and also include a contribution from the Mayor’s Recovery Fund.

These plans are part of a scheme between the Mayor of London and Haringey Borough Council to create 15,000 new jobs and 20,100 new homes in Tottenham.
