WALTHAMSTOW Central Station is set to be transformed under plans for £500m investment by Network Rail and construction firm Kier.

Working together under the name Solum Regeneration, the companies plan to regenerate stations across south-east England.

Walthamstow Central is one of seven stations that will be among the first to get an overhaul.

Plans have not yet been unveiled, but the partnership is hoping to create retail developments close to the stations to help with the regeneration.

A public consultation on the plans for Walthamstow Central will take place later this month, but a date has not yet been confirmed.
