Network Rail will today announce the completion of the new western concourse, the most spectacular part of the five-year programme to restore and improve King’s Cross station. More than 45m passengers a year - travelling through London and to and from destinations as far afield as Newcastle, Edinburgh and York - will benefit from a raft of improvements when it opens to the public on Monday (19th March). The new concourse opens to the public on Monday 19 March 2012.
