Waterloo is Britain’s largest and busiest station
Whether city commuters, holiday makers, Epsom race goers or armed forces, London Waterloo has always been a place for important arrivals and departures.
Over the next few years, we are carrying out a series of projects to improve passenger experience at the station.
Starting in early 2023, we are refurbishing toilets, replacing the 100-year-old station roof, improving customer information systems and the retail offer, as well as adding more seating on the concourse. You can learn more about the projects on our Improving London Waterloo station page.
