A pre-made lift shaft has now been moved into position at Warwick station as part of the ongoing work to make the station more accessible.

The steel structure, which was manufactured off-site and delivered to the station last month, has now been craned into position.

The work took place overnight on Saturday (June 7).

Work has been taking place since spring 2024 to install two new lifts which will help passengers access platforms one and two.

Here’s some photos by Geoff Ousbey of the lift shaft being moved.
