Sandwich Station improvements completed ahead of The 149th Open in July 2021
在2020年7月11日星期日11至7月18日，在2020年7月18日星期日，第149届开放将在Sandwich举行的Sandwich。
我们在三明治站进行了改进工作，以提高车站的能力，为预计乘火车旅行，为这一国际体育赛事提供更好的体验。
This is what we delivered:
Extended both platforms at the ‘Dover end’ of Sandwich station by 80 metres, so they can fully accommodate the 12-carriage trains that will operate during The Open. This also means the 12-carriage trains calling at Sandwich will not straddle the level crossing, causing less disruption to local traffic.
Within the station itself, a new stepped footbridge was added to provide a link between the extended platforms, along with a new walkway from the extension on platform one. This will provide spectators with a more segregated and direct route towards Royal St George's Golf Club which avoids local roads and streets.
A new additional entrance was created on platform 1 to assist with the movement of spectators to and from the station. The work is expected to speed up the time it takes to reach the golf course while keeping regular passengers and spectators attending The Open separate to ease passenger congestion at Sandwich station.
