Busy Railway Station to Become a Peaceful Oasis with New Garden

Greener and calmer stations for passengers

Chiltern Railways has launched several improvement projects aimed at making its stations more welcoming, sustainable, and beneficial to the community. One major initiative features the creation of a new garden designed to turn a busy railway station into a peaceful oasis for passengers and visitors.

The project is part of the company's broader strategy to enhance the travel experience by offering relaxation areas that promote mental well-being and provide a visual break from the urban environment.

“We want our stations to be places people enjoy spending time in, not just transit points,” said a spokesperson from Chiltern Railways.

Support for young people's careers

In addition to environmental upgrades, the program also focuses on helping young people develop employability skills. Through partnerships with local organizations and training schemes, Chiltern Railways aims to provide opportunities in landscaping, horticulture, and station management.

Commitment to sustainability

Green initiatives such as planting native species, improving biodiversity, and creating more energy-efficient systems are central to Chiltern Railways’ long-term sustainability plan. The goal is to reduce the company’s environmental footprint while creating spaces that foster community connection and relaxation.

“By investing in green spaces, we hope to inspire others in the rail industry to follow suit,” the statement added.
