UK: Hull Paragon Station to benefit from EUR 1.8 million investment

05-paragon stationIntercity train operator TransPennine Express (TPE) will deliver an investment of £1.4 million (EUR 1.8 million) in Hull Paragon Station. The project includes new waiting facilities, an enhanced booking office, new customer information boards and additional retail outlets.
TPE has worked closely with Hull City Council to develop the proposals and submitted an application for Listed Building Consent seeking the approvals required to commence the programme of works. If approved, the investment work will commence early this summer with all works completed by the end of November 2016. The works will be finalized in advance of the start of Hull UK City of Culture on 1 January 2017.
“This investment will transform Hull station with an enhanced station environment, comfortable waiting facilities and a proper arrivals and departures board replacing the existing television monitors. By completing the work this year we will provide customers with a positive first and last impression of Hull, ensuring TransPennine Express does its part in helping to secure the legacy to Hull from the City of Culture events,” David Hatfield, TPE Station Manager for North Humber & North Yorkshire, said.
