Detailed designs have been unveiled for the Stratford Regional Station, which will act as one of the main transport hubs during the London 2012 Olympics.

Construction work on the £100m station is scheduled to be completed by 2010.

HUgh SUmner, transport director for the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA), said: “The vast majority of spectators going to the Games by train in 2012 will use Stratford Regional Station. This £100m construction project to treble capacity will make sure that we can get everyone to the Olympic Park quickly and safely, as well as serve the growing community in years to come."

It is expected that the station will help reduce congestion during the Games by allowing people leaving the Olympic Park to bypass the subways and use a new bridge to directly access the new Central line and DLR platforms for services towards London.
