What the notice says

The Station Enhancement Project will deliver a programme of targeted improvements across 36 stations, with each site receiving a tailored package of works based on local conditions and passenger needs, aligned to the TRU Core Scope to maximise value for money and minimise customer disruption. The scope includes upgrades to platform facilities such as new and refurbished shelters, seating, cycle storage and water fountains, alongside wider refurbishment and maintenance works including painting, deep cleaning and minor accessibility improvements. Safety and compliance measures form a key element, with new markings, handrails, tactiles and anti-trespass features being introduced. In addition, the project will enhance passenger information and wayfinding through improved signage, poster cases, information screens, help points, PA systems and induction loops. Infrastructure and access will also be upgraded through resurfacing, car park improvements, better lighting, and enhanced CCTV coverage, collectively creating safer, more accessible and customer-friendly stations
