The MP for Luton South and South Bedfordshire, Rachel Hopkins, said: “This much-needed work will provide long overdue accessibility measures, so all residents in Luton South and South Bedfordshire can utilise the station and travel on our railway without difficulty.”
Part of the borough council’s action plan to develop the town centre included a new station entrance, ticket office, bridge and lifts.
The area outside the station is part of a redevelopment project that includes a performance venue, new homes, commercial spaces and a food court.
