It also involves the creation of two new parks, cycle lanes, naturalised brooks, and additional bridge connections as well as the construction of a fourth platform, a new section of track between Tottenham Hale and Meridian Water.
Enfield Council leader Nesil Caliskan said: “We are delighted that Jacobs will help us deliver a world class development and enable us to deliver exceptional infrastructure across this development.
“This announcement is vital because providing better transport links and infrastructure opens up opportunities for local people by providing greater access to jobs and opportunities that are further afield, therefore improving their life chances.”
Jacobs said it plans to create a collaborative digital working environment for the scheme and integrate a diverse range of datasets to enable testing of the master plan in future.
