Crossrail

Crossrail, now known as the Elizabeth Line, is a major railway project in London that aims to improve public transport across the city and its surrounding areas. It connects existing rail networks, allowing for quicker and more direct travel through central London. The line runs from Abbey Wood in the east to Reading and Heathrow in the west, covering 60 miles and incorporating new underground sections. The Elizabeth Line enhances capacity, reduces congestion on other lines, and makes travel easier for commuters and visitors, ultimately supporting economic growth and connectivity in the region.
