London Borough of Waltham Forest said:
Lea Bridge Station to reopen
After being out of commission for over a quarter of a century, Lea Bridge Station now looks set to reopen.
The outcome of an extremely positive meeting between Waltham Forest Council and Network Rail was a firm undertaking to work together to deliver the reopening of Lea Bridge Station as soon as possible.
“I was delighted with the result of the meeting,” said Council Leader Chris Robbins. “Network Rail is extremely positive about reopening this station and we’ve set in play a good relationship to be able to go forward together to see the station built.”
The news of the meeting comes off the back of the Council securing £6.5million funding for the project at the end of last year, making a long-sought ambition for the borough a step closer to becoming a reality.
