New Train Station at Former Ford Factory Redevelopment Delayed Until 2027New Train Station at Former Ford Factory Redevelopment Delayed Until 2027 Plans for a new train station adjacent to the redevelopment of the former Ford factory in Dagenham have been postponed until the end of 2027, the Evening Standard reports. The station, which was originally due to open in 2025, is intended to serve the upcoming development of 4,000 homes on the former industrial site. However, delays in the planning process and construction have pushed back the project’s timeline. TfL (Transport for London) and Network Rail are responsible for delivering the new station, which is expected to cost around £200 million. The station will provide a vital transport link for the residents of the new development and will also benefit the wider Dagenham community. The redevelopment of the Ford factory site is a major regeneration project that aims to transform the area into a vibrant new neighborhood. The development will include a mix of affordable and market-rate housing, as well as commercial and leisure facilities. The delay in the construction of the train station is disappointing, but it is important to ensure that the project is delivered to a high standard. Once complete, the new station will be a significant asset to Dagenham and will help to unlock the potential of the former Ford factory site.
