The second round of Crossrail's public consultation has now ended.

Simon Bennett, Crossrail Consultation manager, said: 'Thank you very much to everyone who has responded.

'We are now reviewing all the responses that have been made and will also report them to the Department for Transport (DfT).

'We look forward to visiting local areas again early next year as part of a final information round before a Bill is submitted in Parliament. We will continue to record what you say on our database.'

The details of the scheme may change as a result of the recent consultation. Some of the Round 2 consultation materials will remain on the Crossrail website until the revised versions are created for the information round.
