Firstly the existing northern locker room and toilets at the front of the depot is to be converted into a new production hub featuring a conference room, meeting rooms, a teapoint, and upgraded unisex and accessible toilet facilities. Alongside this, the DMU block will also be enhanced: the ground‐floor team leader offices will be combined into a single larger office, and new toilets will be installed on the first floor, addressing the current lack of toilet facilities in the block. Secondly, the former EMR locker room will be converted into a permanent stores space with compliant modern racking, improved access, and safer vehicle and pedestrian movement routes. This allows the temporary Phase 2 stores to relocate into a long‐term, purpose‐built environment. Alongside this, the existing northern office area is to be expanded to accommodate future staff numbers, and the existing northern stores is to be converted into a dedicated small‐parts storage facility, improving efficiency and overall workflow.
