The project objective was to
investigate works for the design and upgrade of the infrastructure to allow
12-car units comprised of 2 x 4 class 465’s and 2 x 2 class 466 units to
operate on the Dartford (via Sidcup and Bexleyheath), Sevenoaks and Hayes
routes thus allowing significant increase in capacity for a part of the Kent
Network which is currently operating at full capacity. The routes are expected
to have a rising demand in commuter growth in the next twenty years and there
is already a high level of latent demand.
