VINCI wins contract to upgrade London’s Victoria Tube station
Transport for London (TfL) has awarded the contract to upgrade
Victoria Tube station to VINCI BAM Nuttall Ltd, the consortium
comprising Taylor Woodrow (VINCI Construction UK) and BAM Nuttall Ltd.
The project calls for modernising and improving access to one of London
Underground’s busiest and most congested stations, with 80
million passengers a year.
The station will be upgraded in two phases.
• The first phase includes
building a new entrance and a new ticket hall. Works will start in 2011
and should be completed in 2016.
• The second phase involves
installing new lifts and escalators in the existing ticket hall, which
will be doubled in size. Delivery of this phase is scheduled for 2018.
This further success follows on from the contract won by VINCI BAM
Nuttall in December 2009 to upgrade London’s Tottenham Court
Road Tube station.
