Historic UK city to get huge new £161million revamped train station
ONE of the UK’s oldest train stations is getting a huge, much-needed train station redevelopment.
First announced in 2022, Oxford’s main train station is undergoing a £161million revamp.

Four new trains an hour will connect Cambridge to Oxford station via the new East-West Rail link.
It will be the first time the two cities are connected by a direct train route in 50 years.
Chancellor Rachel Reeves has said the new train route will help boost the UK economy by £78million by 2035.
She said: “Oxford and Cambridge offer huge economic potential for our nation’s growth prospects.
“Just 66 miles apart, these cities are home to two of the best universities in the world, two of the most intensive innovation clusters in the world and the area is a hub for globally-renowned science and technology firms in life sciences, manufacturing and AI.
“It has the potential to be Europe’s Silicon Valley. The home of British innovation.”
A huge new entrance building at Oxford station will allow more space with outdoor seating and pathways.
New shops include a Pret-a-Manger, Greggs and M&S Food.
The new railway will be four times the size to allow both walkers and cyclists, and will open later this year.
Additional level crossings and upgrade signalling are all part of the renovation as well.
The £161million project includes £72.7million of funding from the local council, with another £78.6million from the UK government.
Another £10.5million has been contributed by Oxford Local Enterprise Partnership,
Oxford‘s main train station welcomed around 8.7million people a year pre-pandemic.
However, complaints have been raised over the closure of Botley Road, one of the main ways to get to the train station.
Having closed in April 2023, it is expected to stay closed until 2026.
Oxford Station first opened in 1844, making it one of the oldest in the UK and it is also the flagship station of Great Western Railway.
New trains will also connect Oxford and Cambridge for the first time in 50 years[/caption]Why the city needs a new train station
The Sun’s Deputy Travel Editor Kara Godfrey grew up just outside Oxford.
MY early childhood was often spent travelling into the city of Oxford to catch a train to London for trips to the theatre.
However, I also often remembered how chaotic is was trying to get to the station from my home town Witney.
The busy Botley Road was always back to back with cars when travelling at peak times or the weekend.
The 20-minute journey could often take double that, or even more.
And the small station was always overcrowded, making it hard to get through especially if running late.
It became so difficult, I ended up travelling to the alternative Oxford Parkway Station, despite it being a bit further out.
The new Oxford station will hopefully make the beautiful city much easier to visit.
Train routes currently operate to both London Paddington and London Marylebone, as well as to Coventry and Birmingham.
There is also a direct train from Oxford to Manchester once an hour.
The UK is also opening a number of brand new train stations.
Cambridge is getting a new £183million train station, with Cambridge South Station opening this year.
And as part of HS2, the new £2billion ‘super station’ will open in Old Oak Common.
This is alongside the new £460million Birmingham’s Curzon Street Station which will be the first of its kind in the UK in 130 years.
The station was one of the oldest in the UK[/caption]Monster couple filmed themselves repeatedly raping girl in one of UK’s ‘most horrific & despicable’ sex abuse cases
A “DISGUSTING” couple repeatedly filmed themselves as they raped and sexually abused a child in one the UK’s “most horrific” abuse cases.
Zabien Burns, 34, was jailed for life and will serve a minimum of 16 years after being found guilty of 10 sexual offences.

His partner Bethany Hill, 26, previously pleaded guilty to eight sexual offences and was jailed for eight years when they appeared for sentencing at Hull Crown Court on Tuesday.
Hill was convicted of two counts of rape, four counts of sexual assault, arranging the commission of a child sex offence and causing the sexual exploitation of a child.
The pair, both of Hull, East Yorks., were both given a lifelong sexual harm prevention order and will both be on the sex offenders register for life.
Speaking after the sentencing, the child’s mum said when she found out what had happened, she felt “completely numb”.
She added: “It was a huge, horrendous shock, but once it started to sink in, I felt nothing but rage.
“Since that day, the thoughts of what these disgusting and horrible individuals have done has plagued me from the moment I open my eyes until I go to sleep.
“There are no words for the heinous actions of Hill and Burns’, and the impact that it has had, and will continue to have, on our family is immeasurable.
“I am sickened to the core, and the effect this has had can only be described as soul destroying.
“Hill and Burns are vile and cruel. They took my trust and broke it in the most monstrous way by doing something that no person should be capable of.
“I will never forgive you for what you have done.”
Detective Constable Annabel Devall, of Humberside Police, said: “This is one of the most horrific and despicable cases I have ever worked on where a child, one of the most vulnerable people in our society, has been subjected to abominable sexual abuse over a prolonged period.
“Hearing of the nature of these offences is something that will no doubt affect every member of society, and the actions of these individuals are appalling; not only affecting the victim, but also their family.
“This is something the family will never be able to forget, and despite the result here today, it is a trauma they are all going to have to live with for the rest of their lives.
“The offences in this case have been described as disgusting and heinous, and I can only agree, as the victim was purposefully targeted for being too young to understand what was happening to them.”
‘This is super cute’ – I tried fab new coat from Dunnes Stores for spring – it’s very different, I love it so much
DUNNES Stores bosses have dropped a must-have padded coat – and it’s available in two gorgeous spring colours.
The Hooded Quilted Coat is available online and in stores across the country.
The striking jacket has a padded diamond design, with a large collar and side pockets.
For just €35, the padded jacket is a staple you will keep reaching for all year long.
It’s perfect to wear on spring walks or over layers during colder days.
Shoppers can choose from a pretty pastel blue or a cool grey.
Dunnes Stores designers said the jacket has added warmth.
They said: “Designed for comfort and functionality, this coat boasts a sonic quilted design that adds a contemporary touch to your winter wardrobe.
“The funnel neck attached fleece lined hood and fleece lined pockets provide extra warmth and protection against chilly winds.”
The comfy coat ranges in sizes from XS to XXL.
An Irish fashion fan, who posts under @shannonnconway, took to TikTok to show off the coat.
Shannon said: “I’m going to show you this jacket from Dunnes because I absolutely love it. It was only €35.
“It has buttons instead of zip, which I think is very cool and very different. It has zip pockets, has a hood.
“It’s longer at the back. I just love it so, so much. And it comes a different like bluey-grey colour.”
Fashion fans took to the comments to gush over the padded coat.
One person said: “Love it! I need a new jacket.”
Another said: “You always find the best bits in Dunnes.”
One fan shared: “Ohhh such a nice jacket for spring.”
Another said: “This is super cute.”
While another added: “You had me at zip pockets I NEED it.”
Meanwhile, shoppers are rushing to buy an “extremely comfortable” new co-ord set from Dunnes Stores.
Yvonne O’Connor, who goes by @stridetostyle, posts all things fashion and beauty.
She recently took to Instagram to show off her latest Dunnes Stores find.
Yvonne posed in the new Savida matching set that’s just landed online and in shops.
She said: “I’m here in Dunnes for a try on, I don’t know, but it’s extremely comfortable.”
The Savida Soft Textured Co-Ord Button Through Top is now available along with the matching trousers.
Why police were called to first Dunnes Stores opening
BETWEEN the weekly food shops and bargain fashion - Dunnes Stores is a staple retailer in Irish households.
But this wasn’t always the case, and when the initial branch of the shop opened its doors in 1944 it caused quite the stir
On March 31 of the year, Ben Dunne opened the first ever Dunnes Stores on St Patrick’s Street in Co Cork.
Locals quickly learned of the grand opening and flooded into the store in what the retailer’s archives recall as a “shopping frenzy.”
The bargain clothing on sale inside the new store at “pre-war prices” was one of the factors cited for the buzz.
During the chaos a window was forced in and Gardai were called to the scene.
Cops worked to deal with the eager crowds and keep shoppers calm and safe before they made it into the store for their first Dunnes experience.
Fast forward some 80 years, the business now employs over 18,000 people and although an opening of a Dunnes branch hasn’t caused quite as much stir since the very first one, it has cemented its place as one of the nation’s leading retailers.
Dunnes Stores now has 138 stores across Europe:
- 118 in the Republic of Ireland,
- 15 in Northern Ireland
- Five stores in Spain.
