The site is located at national grid reference NS 260200,654300 and the works are within land owned by Network Rail. The site boundary is denoted on drawing TE/8Z2323/Bou 01 – Scheme Boundary Plan.

The works will comprise site clearance, tree clearance, fencing, drainage, ducting, carriageway construction, car park construction including electric charging points, earthworks, soil stabilisation, kerbing, signing, and lining, street lighting, traffic signals installation. The proposed start date for this project is 14th August 2024 and the proposed completion date is 27th June 2025, with a sectional completion date for the South car park of 28th March 2025. This date ties in with the opening of the new station.
