Exciting news! Steelwork installation will commence soon to install Imperial’s new White City Campus entrance, which oversales the Central Line. The computer generated image above shows the completed scheme.

Once delivered, the new entrance, bridge and landscaped approach will replace the current ‘curved’ bridge and construction access on Depot Road, providing a better pedestrian environment and a much improved junction interface with Wood Lane.

Infrastructure Works detail:

For this installation to run smoothly, some out-of-hours works need to commence around February 2024. We appreciate residents' continued understanding and cooperation and have carefully planned the operation to mitigate noise and vibration to the local area. These works are expected to be completed by mid-May 2024.
