Mott MacDonald<\/a> worked on the station for Crossrail Ltd<\/a> progressing the design of Paddington Integrated Project (PIP) and leading the Plateau 2 station and integration team<\/h2>\n

Paddington Elizabeth line station has been transferred<\/a> from Crossrail Ltd to Transport for London<\/a> (TfL). The company has been involved throughout the duration of the Crossrail programme.<\/p>\n

Mott MacDonald was appointed to progress the design of PIP which was developed through a close collaboration between Crossrail, London Underground, Network Rail<\/a> and TfL.<\/p>\n

PIP was one of the first Crossrail construction projects<\/a> to be commissioned and was essential enabling works for the new Elizabeth line station box, re-locating the taxi rank in Departures Road and freeing up space on the west side of the station.<\/p>\n

The project included creation of a new London Underground Hammersmith & City line station entrance onto the canal basin at Paddington Waterside and a new taxi facility which opened in 2012.<\/p>\n

PIP included feasibility, preliminary and detailed design as well as supporting Crossrail by providing technical advice on site during construction.<\/p>\n

Mott MacDonald later led the Plateau 2 station and integration team, testing and commissioning team for Crossrail Ltd.<\/p>\n

Adopting a collaborative approach<\/h3>\n

John Bettles, Mott MacDonald\u2019s head of Plateau 2, said: \u201cThe ten stations on the Elizabeth line are being progressively handed over from Crossrail to TfL. The commissioning of Paddington brings the number of transferred stations to six.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe testing and commissioning of the highly complex station systems and integration with routeway SCADA communications systems has been a huge challenge but adopting a collaborative integration approach across the various contracts and stakeholders has been absolutely key in the success of the stations programme.\u201d<\/p>\n

Julie Dakin, Mott MacDonald\u2019s metros and civil regional director, said: \u201cI worked on PIP which was the first phase of Crossrail\u2019s impact on Paddington Station, bringing improved access and a high-quality passenger environment.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is great to see the new Elizabeth line station at Paddington handed over from Crossrail to TfL and I look forward to people using it next year.\u201d<\/p>\n
