The redevelopment of London Bridge opened in July 2018 following a five-year construction period, throughout which the station remained entirely operational. The project’s design reflects and incorporates the station’s rich history and original Victorian architecture, reusing spaces and materials wherever possible. With 56 million users annually, the new station provides increased capacity by rebuilding extended platforms along the viaduct, and includes an expansive, naturally lit street level concourse to create a new civic space for the Southwark area. A complex and challenging project, London Bridge Station was shortlisted for the RIBA Stirling Prize in 2019.
