Brighton Station Gateway

Arrive, enjoy and connect

Making Brighton Station a great welcome, a great place and a great interchange

Brighton Station is critical to the city. Whether you are travelling or live or work in the area, the station and surrounding streets have an impact on your daily life.

We want to transform the area so it offers:

• a great welcome– a fitting introduction to the fantastic city of Brighton & Hove

• a great place– a space you can enjoy in the heart of the city whether you’re travelling or not

• a great interchange– a place that helps you get where you’re going as quickly, or as slowly, as you want

The key aims of the scheme are to improve the southern station entrance around Queens Road and create a high quality northern entrance.

At the moment, the space in front of the station is dominated by traffic, but doesn’t work particularly well for taxis, buses or private vehicles. Pedestrians – the main users of the space in terms of numbers – have very poor facilities and the facilities for cyclists are also limited. To make meaningful improvements to the area, we have to change the way that traffic uses the space.

We are now seeking the views of people who use the station and surrounding streets to make sure our final design makes the best possible use of the area.
