Passengers using Billericay rail station are to benefit from improved facilities, thanks to improvement works being carried out by Abellio Greater Anglia.

Work started this weekend to install new automatic ticket gates at the station, six in the ticket hall and four on platform 2.


Following this work, Abellio Greater Anglia will then make repairs to the platforms, carrying out general maintenance to the platform coper edging stones, surfaces and drainage.

The work is expected to be complete later this Spring and will involve occasional night work to minimise inconvenience to customers.

Abellio Greater Anglia’s Head of Customer Services - East, Neil Grabham, said, “Abellio Greater Anglia is committed to upgrading stations across the network to improve the travelling experience. The improvements carried out at Billericay station will result in a safer, smarter station environment for our customers and help to reduce ticketless travel. We will be doing everything we can to minimise inconvenience and thank customers for their patience whilst this work is carried out.”
