R+ COMMUNICATIONS
COMMUNICATIONS READING IS WHERE COMMUNICATIONS REALLY COME TOGETHER. ALREADY THE SECOND BUSIEST STATION OUTSIDE OF THE CAPITAL, IT IS SET TO EXPAND TO ACCOMMODATE THE LARGEST NEW INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS THE UK HAS EVER SEEN – CROSSRAIL AND THE PROPOSED WESTERN RAIL LINK TO HEATHROW.
CRISSCROSS
The £500 million investment in the rail infrastructure will double the town’s train capacity and ensure its position as the economic capital of the Thames Valley.
Complimenting Reading’s already excellent road and rail services, Crossrail (from 2019) will connect the town directly to London’s West End, City and Docklands. In addition, the proposed Western Rail Link to Heathrow scheme will halve the travel time to Heathrow airport to just 28 minutes.
