Grimshaw has been appointed to work up a masterplan for Waterloo Station and its surrounding area to boost passenger experience at the UK’s busiest rail hub and contribute to the regeneration of the local area.

Lambeth Council and Network Rail has tasked the practice with improving connections to the South Bank, The Cut, Waterloo Road, Lower Marsh, and Leake Street, and ensuring that the rich commercial and cultural history of the area is reflected in the vision.

New routes for walking and cycling are also part of Grimshaw’s brief, was well as enhancing existing thoroughfares.
