Local MP Mary Macleod has urged Hounslow Council to look at ways it can support much needed improvements to Gunnersbury Station.

Last month, Mary received confirmation of Network Rail’s support for improving Gunnersbury Station at the most recent meeting of the Gunnersbury Station Action Team. With the support of Hounslow Council, via Section 106 funding, improvements to the station could move closer to becoming a reality.

Some Section 106 funding has already been used for various improvements, but targeted funding will likely be needed before work on the station can begin.

Mary said:

“The Gunnersbury Station Action Team has made real progress in identifying what needs to change at the station, but we now need Hounslow Council to support the plan too. I have pressed the Council to seriously look at providing more funding for Gunnersbury Station, so that we can begin improving it as soon as possible for the thousands of local people and commuters who use it every day. Once the Council agree with us that Gunnersbury Station is no longer fit for purpose, I hope they will want to support our plans too”.
