Brief
Worksop railway station booking hall and waiting room were dilapidated and damp throughout and we were tasked with the refurbishment to rejuvenate the space and create a brand new booking hall and staff ticket office space for both passengers and the station staff.
The project was hugely successful and additionally we were asked to create a second smaller waiting room on the opposite platform.
Overall, we improved and increased seating at the station and have provided a much more comfortable working and waiting area for staff and passengers alike.
