Renwick Road railway station
Renwick Road (referred to as Castle Green in council documents) is a proposed railway station between and on the under construction Gospel Oak to Barking Line Extension. The station was proposed during a consultation of the Gospel Oak to Barking Line extension as part of Alignment B, which was eventually chosen as the preferred option. The station can be built at a later stage with the site safeguarded for future building of the station. History. In August 2017, the Government granted permission for the extension to Barking Riverside, safeguarding provision for a stop at Renwick Road  and stating that a further extension across the River Thames should be likewise provisioned as necessary. As part of the preferred route, a stop at Renwick Road on the London, Tilbury & Southend Railway was safeguarded for future construction. An alternative site near Alfred's Way was rejected, and all other options such as the nearby Freight Yards were considered unfeasible. The station would lie east of the proposed merge / diverge points with the Essex Thameside (Tilbury Loop Line) line along which c2c services operate, so whilst the station would not provide an interchange with c2c services, nor would the station 's construction disrupt those services. The new station could generate 5,000 homes according to the document. Status. The proposal is identified in the Barking and Dagenham Local Plan 2037. The station would be located on Renwick Road and is linked with plans to divert the A13 road between Barking Creek and the London Sustainable Industries Park.
