The new Platform 0 at Leeds station WORK on a new platform at a local railway station worth £161 million has been completed over the festive period. The new Platform 0 at Leeds station will allow more trains, more seats and fewer delays for rail passengers using the station, including the many thousands of Bradford residents who usually travel to Leeds for work on a daily basis. Work on the platform began in 2018, with final touches made by Network Rail over the Christmas weekend to overhead lines, track and signalling systems, and rigorous testing to ensure the platform is ready for use. Platform 0 will be used at first during times of disruption to try and minimise delays, with timetabled services coming in 2022.
