Forthcoming Improvements
Crossrail trains will call at Hanwell. Services are expected to commence in 2018. Selective Door Opening will be used because the platforms are shorter than the Crossrail trains will be. In other respects the station already meets most Crossrail requirements, but Network Rail will undertake minor architectural works including branding and signage.

Famous quotes containing the words forthcoming and/or improvements:
“A few more days, and this essay will follow the Defensio Populi to the dust and silence of the upper shelf.... For a month or two it will occupy a few minutes of chat in every drawing-room, and a few columns in every magazine; and it will then ... be withdrawn, to make room for the forthcoming novelties.”
—Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
“The improvements of ages have had but little influence on the essential laws of man’s existence: as our skeletons, probably, are not to be distinguished from those of our ancestors.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
