London’s public transport system will receive a significant makeover in the coming years, with Crossrail announcing their plans to transform certain stations into cultural masterpieces. The new project, dubbed Crossrail Art, will incorporate artistic inspiration into the architectural design of eight stations across London, enhancing the city’s unique identity. The stations on the new Crossrail Line, which will each be assigned a revered London gallery to design their comprehensive installations, are as follows: Paddington station, Liverpool Street, Tottenham Court Road, Bond Street station, Farringdon, Whitechapel, Canary Wharf and Custom House. The vision intends to improve the daily routines of Londoners, and the experiences of visitors, as public transport is such a prominent aspect of the city. For more information on Crossrail Art, see this briefing from Ultra Vie and read up on the ambitious project. - Robbie Westacott
