Troon Station redevelopment plan to be revealed

Region & Route:

Scotland’s Railway: Scotland

Residents of Troon will have a first look at finalised plans for the redevelopment of the town’s station building following the fire which devastated it in July 2021.

Network Rail is inviting the local community to a drop-in event at the Walker Hall between 4.00pm and 7.00pm on Tuesday 31 January to see the design first-hand ahead of it being submitted for planning consideration.

As well as having the opportunity to see the completed design, local people will be able to meet members of the team who will deliver the work to reinstate the station.

The completed design was developed from the feedback gained on three initial design concepts presented to the community in August last year. From this initial event and comments received, it was evident that Option 2 was a clear favourite.

Jo Noble, Network Rail sponsor for the redevelopment of the station said, “We are extremely excited to be offering the residents of Troon a first look at the design for the redeveloped station building prior to submission for planning.

“The community has played an important part in the design of this building and we hope they are pleased with what we are presenting.

“We look forward to welcoming everyone back to the Walker Hall on Tuesday 31^st January.”
