Planning application
Unit R08 Paddington Station Praed Street London W2 1HB
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Network Rail contractor to run 125m of white 8mm diameter Openreach fibre telecom cable internally from an existing distribition point in the basement intake room to the fat face store within the station. the cable will be run entirely on existing cable trays, on established cable routes without the need to drill any new holes in brickwork. Please see attacheed annotated photos showing the entire route. We are confident these works are classed as de-minimis however Network Rail consent requires proof of this.
